You must submit all required documents in the correct format for your UK student visa application.

- Letter of Preferences: This is not a standard UK visa requirement. If a university or visa officer requests a specific letter (such as a Statement of Purpose or preference letter), it should be typed, signed, dated, and written in clear English. Follow any specific instructions given by the institution or authority.

- Other Documents: Submit originals or certified copies. If any document is not in English, include a certified English translation with:
- Translation date
- Translator’s contact details
- Translator’s full name and signature
- A statement confirming the translation is accurate

All documents must be clear, complete, and organized as per current UKVI (UK Visas and Immigration) guidelines. If you have questions about a specific document, contact your LeapScholar counsellor for personalized guidance.
