Getting admitted to Stanford University without any research paper under your belt is a remarkable feat. Kshitij Kumbar (BTech Mechanical Engineering) did just that. According to Kshitij the application reflected his passion and genuine interest. The dynamic, global experience he gained at Ahmedabad University further boosted his prospects: “The internships, projects, and ability to pursue multidisciplinary research made my case. I benefitted from the project-based learning group that took me to Agastya Foundation and gave me the opportunity to interact with students from all over the world, including the US.”
