Disclaimers

Read the application rules carefully before generating the purpose statement PDF.

Please note that ISAD accepts applications once per semester. Any applications submitted before or after the designated application period will not be considered.

Additional application periods may open during the semester only at the discretion of the branch head if additional recruitment is required. Such additional recruitment is not guaranteed.

To submit an application, individuals must provide a CV (Curriculum Vitae) that includes their cumulative GPA and any relevant academic activities they wish to list. Applicants must also submit a statement of purpose that fully addresses the questions outlined in the provided template.

ISAD requires both CV and personal statement to be evaluated. Both documents are mandatory for evaluation; failure to submit either one will result in the application being considered incomplete. Incomplete applications will be immediately dismissed, will not be reviewed, and will only be reconsidered in the next application cycle.

Examples of incomplete applications include submitting either one of the following:

  • CV without a Purpose Statement
  • Purpose Statement without a CV
  • A transcript without both CV and Purpose Statement

The only accepted submission format is a complete CV (including cGPA and relevant activities) together with a fully completed Statement of Purpose.

If any required documents are found to contain false statements, misrepresentations, or falsified information, the individual will be immediately removed from the application process or, if discovered during the semester, from the association.
