A tip that saves weeks
Scan everything in colour, full page, as PDF. Cropped or blurry scans are the most common reason documents are sent back. Upload them to your Document Centre so your counsellor can review them.
General guidance only. Always verify requirements, costs and policies with the institution or the official government source.
