Applying to study abroad is more than just filling out forms— it’s about telling your story in a way that convinces the visa officer that you are a genuine student with clear goals and strong ties to your home country. One of the most important documents in this process is the Genuine Student Statement (GSS), also known in some cases as the Statement of Purpose (SOP), Genuine Student Entrant statement (GTE) or Genuine Student (GSR) requirement.
