Words to stress correctly

47 words, aim 18–21 seconds. Say 6 as "six". Breathe after centralized, programs, applications and application; short pauses at each comma in the list.

Where marks are usually lost

Stress u·ni·VER·si·ty's and in·di·VID·u·al on the third syllable, in·for·MA·tion, ap·pli·CA·tions, ap·pli·CA·tion on the third, re·QUIRE·ments on the second. Keep every -s: schools, colleges, admits, students, programs, degrees, applications, requirements, procedures, scholarships, websites. Don't hesitate before centralized.

General tip: the four-item list repeats graduate—keep it short and unstressed each time so the list sounds fluent, not mechanical.
