What to verify for your case

  • Your exact institution, programme and study level are valid for the route you intend to use.
  • Academic prerequisites, language scores and documents are checked at programme level.
  • Tuition and real living costs are kept separate from the immigration authority’s minimum financial evidence.
  • Deadlines are verified for the actual intake and scholarship cycle.
