Eligibility criteria for the GRE
A standard question that anyone thinking of taking the GRE examination might ask: Am I eligible to take the GRE? Has the ETS set any guidelines that would not allow me to take part in the examination?
Here are some important points:
- There is no age restriction.
- Anyone can take the examination. You need not be a graduate or have any other qualification.
- The examination is generally taken by students who wish to pursue their masters or their PhD. These courses require that you have an undergraduate degree.
- Test-takers must have a valid passport while taking the examination. Without a valid passport, the examination cannot be given.
Remember that the GRE, just like the GMAT is an examination which gives a common platform for the universities to evaluate students who are seeking admission. The GRE provides a filter for these colleges, along with other requirements such as the Letter of Recommendation, the Statement of Purpose, your transcripts and achievements, that can help the university make a decision on whether to give the applicant an admit.
