Step 04 / 06

Prepare documents and apply

The university decides which translations, notarisation or legalisation are required. Confirm the current checklist before paying for documents or sending an application fee.

Do this now

  1. Prepare passport, transcripts, graduation proof, language evidence, CV and personal statement.
  2. Ask the university whether translation, notarisation, apostille or consular legalisation is required.
  3. Apply through the university’s official portal and keep submission receipts.
  4. Track scholarship applications separately from degree admission.

Before you move on

  • Names, dates and passport details match across every file.
  • The programme-specific checklist is current for the target intake.
  • Any payment is going to an official university or government channel.

Avoid

The one rule that applies to every step

Use the university’s current official programme page for the exact degree, campus, language, tuition, deadline and document rules. Do not treat a directory, social post or agency summary as the final authority.
