Getting the scans right
- Scan or photograph the whole document, edge to edge, with nothing cropped.
- Make sure the text is readable at full size - this is where most uploads fail.
- Use the name that matches your photo ID, and flag any mismatch early.
- Keep the originals; verification may be requested later.
Confirm the list. Confirm current requirements and dates with an admission counsellor before you apply - universities revise them between intakes.
Documents: common questions
What format should the scans be in?
Clear, legible scans or photographs of the original documents, readable at full size. Blurred or cropped uploads are the most common reason an application stalls.
My documents are in a regional language. Is that a problem?
You will normally need a certified English translation alongside the original. A counsellor can confirm what is acceptable.
My name differs across documents. What do I do?
Name mismatches between your marksheets and your photo ID usually need a supporting affidavit or gazette notification. Flag it to your counsellor early - it is fixable, but not at the last minute.
Do I need to post physical copies?
No. The application is entirely online and documents are uploaded. Keep your originals safe in case verification is requested later.
