Ətraflı məzmun bu dilə tərcümə olunur. İstənilən sualla bağlı məsləhətçilərimizə öz dilinizdə yaza bilərsiniz.

## Core documents

- Passport
- Diploma and transcript
- Language test result
- Motivation letter and CV
- Reference letters
- Portfolio or GRE/GMAT if the programme requires it

## Certification and translation

- Apostille: many countries ask for apostilled diplomas; ask your institution how long it takes.
- Sworn/notarised translation: verify the format and language the target university wants.
- Equivalence/recognition: some countries ask for extra evaluation (for example anabin/uni-assist in Germany, CIMEA in Italy).

## Plan

Apostille, translation and evaluation can take weeks. Start at least 3–4 months before the application date and compare each document with the target university's official list.
