Common mistakes
What causes rejections on applications like this one.
Leaving documents to the last week
Transcripts and reference letters depend on other people. Request them first.
Uploading the wrong file format
Portals frequently reject PDFs above a size limit or with photo quality below their scanner threshold.
Inconsistent academic information
A mismatch between your form entries and your transcript is one of the most common rejection reasons.
Ignoring nationality restrictions
Some awards are limited by citizenship or residency. Check this before anything else.
Missing a required reference
Two referees are often required. Confirm both have agreed before you submit.
Not reviewing the final application
A single mistyped digit in a passport number can invalidate an otherwise strong application.
