How to submit proof that you graduated from an eligible field of study

Depending on your study program, you may need to provide proof that you meet the field of study requirement.

Due to system limitations, the document checklist won’t ask you to provide proof that you graduated from an eligible field of study.

You must upload proof that you graduated in an eligible field of study under the “Client Information” section of your account.

• You can only upload one file in the “Client Information” section.
  • If you upload more than one, only the most recent upload will be saved in your application.

If you have to upload more than one document into the “Client information” section, you must combine them into a single file.

How to combine documents into 1 file

Text documents

• Copy the text from all documents into a single file.
• If you’re including photos, use the “Insert picture” function instead of copying and pasting.

PDF files

You can combine several PDF files into 1 PDF file.

• If you have Acrobat DC, follow the instructions on Adobe’s website.
• If you don’t have Acrobat DC or similar software, there are websites and apps you can use to combine your PDF files.
  • Make sure to read their terms of service and privacy policy before using these.
  • We can’t guarantee the security of third-party tools. Use them at your own risk.

Images

You can combine multiple images of your documents into a text document or a PDF file.

When you save a PDF file, select a low resolution (150 DPI or less) or a minimum size setting to keep the document under the file size limit for the online application you use.

• For example, when you select “Save as” with Microsoft Word, an “Optimize” menu appears on the panel to the left of the “Save” button. Select “Minimum size” to get the smaller file size.
