Money required for applying to Grad School

Hello everyone!
most of you don't know me but I am an example many young Pakistani students who wish to go for US or Europe for doing PhD and then return back to there home country to improve the living standards of there fellow countrymen.Currently I am a senior undergrad student, studying Electrical Engineering from one of the top most universities of Pakistan.I belong to a very middle class family have been studying at undergrad level due ti a Financial Aid Program that my university offers.


Now I want to go for a PhD in Electrical Engineering in some good university but in order to apply for I PhD program, first I need to give my TOEFL and GRE exam that require a total registration fee of($160+$185=$345). Then I am thinking about applying to 7 to 8 universities in US. On average application fee of one university is $65 and if we add the ETS charges for sending the TOEFL and GRE score to 3 universities other than the initial free universities total application fee becomes ($65*7+$50*3=$605). This makes the total money that I need for applying to a grad program as $950. I plan on applying for grad inductions in the spring of 2015. But I need these initial funds to get registered for GRE and TOEFL.


I have indulged in several research level projects during my undergrad studies, also I have maintained exceptional academic record through out my undergrad studies. If anyone of you need any other information regarding my academic background or you want to get any verified about me, just contact me.


Hoping for much generous response from anyone who finds this.
