Can you please check and confirm the documents I have sent you in UK/UAE for a Master's?

I cannot view files sent through this chat, so share your document list as text instead. A standard Master's checklist needs transcripts, English test scores, an SOP, 2 to 3 LORs, a CV, and a passport copy, plus notary certification, an FCDO Apostille, and UAE Embassy legalisation for attestation.

I can't actually view or open any documents you've sent through this chat, since there's no file storage or attachment access here, but I can absolutely help you check your list against what's standard for a UK or UAE Master's application. Here is the full document checklist so you can verify everything yourself, plus the extra attestation steps if you're getting a UK degree recognized for use in the UAE.

Standard Master's Application Document Checklist

DocumentPurpose
Academic transcripts and degree certificatesOfficial record, with certified translation if needed
Proof of English proficiencyIELTS, TOEFL, or equivalent test scores
Statement of PurposeExplains your academic interest and goals
Letters of RecommendationUsually 2 to 3 academic or professional references
CV/ResumeSummary of your academic and work background
Passport copyClear copy of your identification page

Extra Steps for UAE Degree Attestation

  • Get solicitor or notary certification on your UK degree documents first.
  • Obtain an FCDO Apostille for UK-issued documents.
  • Complete UAE Embassy and MOFA legalisation as the final step before your degree is recognized in the UAE.

My Advice

My advice is to type out the exact list of documents you already have ready, one line each, and share that with me directly in the chat instead of trying to send a file, since I can then cross-check it item by item against this checklist. If any of your documents are still in a language other than English, get the certified translations done now, since that step alone causes the most delays in both university applications and UAE attestation.
