Admission Documents

The specific admission documents required for UK universities may vary slightly depending on the university, level of study (undergraduate, postgraduate), and the course you are applying for. However, some common documents typically required for admission to UK universities include:

These should include grades/marks and must be translated into English if they are in a different language.

Passport Copy: A valid passport copy to confirm your identity and citizenship.

Standardized Test Scores (e.g., SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT): Some courses and universities may require standardized test scores, especially for postgraduate and professional courses.

Financial Documentation: Proof of sufficient funds to cover tuition fees and living expenses in the UK. This may include bank statements or sponsorship letters.
