What documents do I need to provide for checking eligibility and applying for scholarships, especially if I only have a provisional degree certificate?

Yes, you can apply for scholarships with a provisional degree certificate, but you’ll need to provide a full set of supporting documents. Typically required documents include:

- Academic transcripts and your provisional degree certificate (with certified translations if not in English)
- Statement of Purpose (SOP) explaining your goals and motivation
- Letters of Recommendation (usually 2-3 from professors or employers)
- CV or Resume with academic and work details
- Proof of English proficiency (such as IELTS, if required)
- Passport copy
- Financial documents (for need-based scholarships)
- Recent passport-sized photographs

Some scholarships may accept a provisional certificate initially but will require your final degree certificate later. Requirements can vary by country and scholarship.
