Various foreign universities accept GATE scores. Universities might also have additional eligibility criteria that might be required to be fulfilled as well in order to get admission. Apart from securing admission to Master in Engineering (M.E.) and Master in Technology (M. Tech) programs in prestigious colleges across the country, the GATE score is utilized by most foreign universities to offer PG admission. Some of the foreign universities that accept the GATE scores are the National University of Singapore (NUS), Nanyang Technological University (NTU) Singapore, Technical University of Germany and RWTH Aachen, Germany.

Yes, there are few foreign top universities which offer admission based on GATE exam.

Candidates must know that there may be external factors also in the admission criteria such as ILETS, TOFEL. So candidates must contact the university before applying for the admission process.
