Does having two backlogs, cleared before final exams, affect my daughter's eligibility for admission for a Master's?

No, having two backlogs that were cleared before final exams typically does not affect eligibility for master's admission abroad. Most universities focus on the final academic record and whether there are any active backlogs at the time of application.

Some universities may review the overall academic history, so it's important to mention cleared backlogs transparently in the application. A strong profile, good grades, relevant work experience, and a clear Statement of Purpose can further strengthen her chances.

Policies on backlogs vary by country and university, so requirements may differ for each option. For personalized guidance, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
