If I select a target course now, can I change it later if needed?
Yes, you can usually change your target course later, but the process depends on university policies and timing.
- Timing matters: Changes are easier if requested early, often within the first weeks of the semester. Deadlines are strict and vary by institution.
- University policies: You must meet the new course’s entry requirements and check for seat availability.
- Visa impact: Changing courses can affect your student visa status, and you may need to update or reapply for your visa depending on the country.
- Academic and financial effects: There may be new prerequisites or changes to tuition fees and program length.
If you’re considering a change, contact your LeapScholar counsellor promptly to discuss your options and next steps.
