Yes, your mother can sponsor your study abroad application, even if your parents do not support your decision, as long as she meets the requirements set by the university and visa authorities.

- Proof of relationship (such as a birth certificate) is required. - Financial documentation from your mother must show she can cover your tuition and living expenses. - Sponsorship letter from your mother stating her intent and ability to support you is usually needed. - University and visa rules may have specific criteria for sponsors, which are subject to change.
