What to prepare

  • Passport and the application form for your nationality route.
  • Your original school-leaving qualifications, subject grades and transcripts; add degree and prerequisite-course evidence for graduate or college-entry routes. Confirm predicted-grade rules if results are pending.
  • Evidence of English or the university’s written exemption.
  • Any required motivation statement, references, medical form and passport photograph.
  • Certified copies, translations, recognition and apostille only in the format requested by this university.
