Yes, having a LinkedIn account is valuable for your study abroad application process. Universities and recruiters may review your LinkedIn profile to assess your professional presence and achievements.

A well-maintained LinkedIn profile helps you:
- Connect with alumni, professors, and professionals in your field
- Showcase your academic background, projects, and certifications
- Increase your visibility to admissions officers and recruiters

Building a strong LinkedIn profile can support your application and future career opportunities. If you need help setting up your profile, your LeapScholar counsellor can guide you.
