You’ll need to prepare several key documents for master’s applications and scholarships in Austria, Sweden, Spain, and the Netherlands.

Common documents:
- Completed application form (via university portal)
- Academic transcripts and degree certificates
- Proof of English proficiency (IELTS/TOEFL)
- Statement of Purpose (motivation letter)
- 2 - 3 letters of recommendation
- CV (curriculum vitae)
- Valid passport copy
- Passport-sized photographs (as specified)
- Financial documents (bank statements or loan sanction)
- Additional items if required (e.g., portfolio, research proposal)

Country-specific notes:
- Austria: Bachelor’s degree must meet entry requirements; English proof via test or prior study.
- Sweden: Official translations needed if documents aren’t in English, Swedish, Danish, or Norwegian.
- Spain: Requirements vary by university.
- Netherlands: Minimum 180 ECTS bachelor’s degree; include transcripts for any international study.

For scholarships:
- Scholarship application form
- SOP tailored for scholarship
- Academic transcripts and certificates
- Letters of recommendation
- CV/resume
- Proof of language proficiency (if required)
- Research proposal (if applicable)

If you’re in your final year, submit current transcripts and an enrollment confirmation. Requirements and deadlines are subject to change, so ensure your documents are current and complete.
