This is not always true. Some schools offer application fee waivers and still give admission and funding.

horlahsunbo225:

For your own good schools that offer public application waiver are den of rejection, so I'll advise you to stay away from them.

And next time you're applying try and use your unofficial GRE scores report for admission purpose and when you eventually get admission and you decided to attend you can send your official scores to your desire school.

That's true my brother, especially during this covid 19 period, if you have publications, did conference presentations, have a very good cgpa (>4.0) with masters with a good SOP, you'll be taken before GRE students, many of the professors i have spoken to don't take that serious, they want to know if you can do research which GRE will not tell them alone.
When i was about to applying, i searched for schools that waived GRE and mailed their graduate admission officer that i want to applied for phd and told them my condition that i don't have finance to do the GRE (lols) but showed them what i have to offer the department, to my amazement they said they will not consider GRE for me and told me that they will waive it for me, am talking about tier 1 universities. In fact, by God's grace, two faculty members of that department have agreed to supervised me.
Have seen international students with no GRE that got admitted to duke, Ohio state university without that exam for this 2021 fall admission and got admitted with funding in my course forum.
N.B: there's no rule to it, each school has her our style of admission. Oregon state university (tier 1) asked students to send mail for GRE waiver. UCLA, University of Tennessee, Iowa state university, university of Washington, Ohio state university, etc (dem plenty) which are great schools.
So do your research and talked to their admission officers, they will gladly reply if they'll waive it for you or not but give a convincing reason for not doing it. But if you don't have those experience I wrote up please do GRE

I don't think we are speaking about the same thing. I was speaking about Application fee waivers, not GRE waivers.

In my little experience, I think sending your GRE score when it is waived is based on the school and professors. Some still want it, while some would tell you they don't want it at all. I have also heard professors say kindly send it, even though the school waives it.

Yes, I agree with you, just not totally. Some schools like NYU that started sending out public waivers after their priority deadline closed are just looking for applicants to further reduce their acceptance rate. However, some schools genuinely offer waivers publicly and give funding. They do it early.

UC Irvine
Tulane University
Northeastern University

Stevens Institute of Tech gives admission but very low chance of funding, you need to secure a professor very early to get funding.

Good day all,
A friend introduced me to this great forum which I have gone through some of the pages and saw the benefit and help it has rendered to so many people.

I would like to apply for admission in the United State, Masters program in Southern New Hampshire University. Their ongoing admission is still on and the deadline is February 3rd.
Please I would like to ask some questions before I proceed with the application because I don't want to waste any money and time.

....

Please i would be glad if i get any advice or contribution on these questions. Thanks and God bless.

What program are you applying to at SNHU? I checked their website and most of what they're offering are online M.Sc programs.

Be sure to filter out your search by on-campus before going ahead to apply

I'm not doubting you, but hope you know that most schools waived GRE for this year's application cycle due to the impact of COVID19.

The american educationl journey will take money. People apply to as many schools as they can to boost their chances. I know people who applied to as many as 13 schools. It depends on you. Some people apply to one high end school, One average school and one "low" end school just to be safe. Some people also apply to only schools with less than $30 app fee. The choice is yours. The more schools you apply to, the more options you might have.
