The Admissions Office reserves the right to ask for official or certified hard copies of transcripts (or diplomas) if required for the evaluation of the application.
2. A PDF scan of the translation of your diploma(s) and official transcripts. If your documents are not in English, Dutch, French, or German, please arrange for these documents to be translated by a registered translator. These documents must also be certified by the educational institution that issued them or by a national authority.
3. English Proficiency Certificate (see language requirements). The PDF scans of the TOEFL or IELTS certificates have to be uploaded in the web application. You should also request ETS or the British Council to make your test result available to KU Leuven in their online verification tool.
4. PDF of the proof of payment of the application fee made either via bank transfer or via credit card.
5. A PDF scan of the identity page of your passport (for EEA citizens: a PDF scan of your national ID card will also suffice).
