You'll need to provide a set of academic, personal, and financial documents when applying to universities abroad.

Key documents typically include:
- Academic transcripts and certificates (Class 10, 12, and bachelor's degree)
- Provisional certificate if final results are pending
- English proficiency test scores (like IELTS or TOEFL), unless waived by the university
- Statement of Purpose (SOP) and Letters of Recommendation (LORs)
- Resume/CV highlighting academics and work experience
- Valid passport
- Financial documents (recent bank statements, affidavit of support, proof of income, or education loan approval)
- Visa documents (application form, fee receipt, photos, appointment letter if required)
- Health and insurance documents (medical certificate, vaccination records, health insurance)
- Accommodation and travel proof (housing confirmation, flight tickets, travel insurance)

Requirements can vary by country and university and are subject to change. For help organizing your documents, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
