Yes, you can retake or clear your backlog before applying for your master's abroad.

It's important to have no active backlogs when you apply and during visa processing, as this affects your eligibility and visa approval chances. Clearing your backlog will strengthen your application and reduce the risk of academic-related visa issues.

If you need guidance on documenting your cleared backlog or presenting it in your application, your Leap counsellor can help.
