thegraydude Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) I am applying for PhD. I'm not sure whether I need to give them a financial statement or not. I have emailed them about it, but these schools are taking their sweet time in replying. Meanwhile, could you please let me know if a financial statement is required to be submitted along with the application before the deadline? I was thinking it wouldn't be required since most PhDs are funded. Edited November 10, 2014 by thegraydude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admissions Advice Online Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 The school will always tell you if they require a financial statement or not. The only time that it would be advisable to automatically send in a financial statement would be if you are applying as an international student as such students are required to provide financial statements for immigration/visa purposes. - Admissions Advice Online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm applying for PhD, which will mostly likely be fully funded. I realize immigration's might need it after I'm admitted but do I need to produce during application time? If there are other PhD students over here, please let know if you submitted a financial document during application process.

If there are other PhD students over here, please let know if you submitted a financial document during application process. Usually no. However if you're admitted and funded, you can use your funding as a means of financial backing. Most schools only ask of financial backing only when an applicant has been admitted and by that time, you'd know if you got funding or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
