File format Upload steps Technical support

Quick check

Check these points before uploading

An upload issue is usually related to the file’s format, size or legibility. Review the rules shown in the document field and try again.

  • Make sure your file is in an accepted format.
  • Check that the file does not exceed the size limit shown in the form.
  • Use a short, clear filename without special characters.
  • Confirm that the document opens, includes every page and is legible.

Try again

Prepare the file and upload it again

  1. 1
    Save the file to your device

    Download the file to your device before uploading it, rather than uploading directly from a messaging app or cloud link.

  2. 2
    Simplify the file

    Create a clear, legible copy where needed. If multiple pages are requested, combine them into one orderly file.

  3. 3
    Check your connection

    Try again using a stable internet connection and do not close the page until the upload is complete.

  4. 4
    Confirm the upload

    Check that the filename or preview appears after uploading.

Common issues

Proceed according to the error message

The file is selected but the upload does not finish

Check your internet connection, refresh the page and select the file again. If the issue continues, try a different up-to-date browser or device.

I see a file format or size warning

Check the accepted file type and size information in the form field. Save the document again in a suitable format and re-upload it.

The uploaded document is unclear or appears incorrectly

Open the document and check its image quality. Remove and replace a file that is incomplete, rotated, shadowed or unreadable.

Questions about document content

Information about which document is required or whether it is suitable is available in the relevant scholarship programme description and the scholarship-providing institution’s announcements.
