Documents

See what the courses see

See your documents the way the courses will see them:

• Download your Application pdf from the Overview or Review screens and the documents are visible towards the end of the application pdf

Note: An uploaded document takes 5-10 minutes to become viewable in a download of the application pdf

Each course can only access (view) the Document Types it has requested.

If a document is missing, mis-loaded, mis-labelled, or any part is unreadable, when viewed in the Download Application pdf, you risk your application being excluded by the course that needs that document.

The name of each uploaded file is listed at the start of the Documents section in the application pdf. This is simply the order the documents should appear below the list. These are not active links, they do not open the documents.

Provide good quality documents

Things to avoid are:

• Photos taken in poor light or at odd angles
• Screenshots of e.g. emails with extremely small or extremely large text

Missing, blacked-out or blurred documents

When you download the Application pdf, if any documents are missing, blacked-out or blurred, this may be due to:

• security features in the document e.g. a password etc, or
• style features in the document e.g. watermarks etc, or
• the file name has unusual characters e.g. & or ' or % etc, or
• too many pages in the document, or
• oversized pages e.g. 200% of A4 size, etc.

Create a new version

You can usually solve the problem by creating and uploading a new version of the document:

• check there is no security in the document e.g. not protected or restricted in any way, and
• put the file through Print to PDF to simplify any style features, and
• use a different file name, and
• do not use any unusual characters in the file name, and
• if the document is more than 10 pages long you may need to upload it as multiple files, and
• when you upload the new document it will take 5-10 minutes to show towards the end of the downloaded Application pdf, and
• when you've finished remember to delete the unreadable files.

If this does not resolve the issue you may need to upload readable images of individual pages.
