If you have academic records from other countries and would like to provide digital academic statements including documents translated into English, you can have them verified independently through Digitary VIA.

If you have applied without an agent, you may be asked to mail an "original certified copy" of your documents. This means that your original documents and their photocopies need to be taken to an authorised person and have them stamp you photocopies. You must send the photocopies with the original stamp.
You also have the option to send the original documents instead of certified copies with original stamps. However, if you choose this option, we are unable to return the original documents.
