What documents are required for the application, especially regarding letters of recommendation?

You’ll need the following documents for your master’s application to Canadian universities:

- Academic transcripts and degree certificates: Official records from all post-secondary institutions, with certified English translations if required. - Statement of Purpose (SOP): Personal essay outlining your academic background, goals, and reasons for choosing the program. - Letters of Recommendation (LORs): Usually 2-3, from professors or employers who know your academic or professional work. These should be on official letterhead, signed, and follow university guidelines. - Curriculum Vitae (CV): Updated resume with education, projects, and achievements. - Proof of English proficiency: IELTS or TOEFL scores. - Other documents: Passport copy, application fee receipt, and any program-specific requirements.

Strong LORs from credible academic or professional sources are essential for a competitive application.
