Please enclose either the original certificate(s) showing the final award(s) for each qualification or photocopies of the originals which have been verified by a British Council official. In some countries the British Council are unable to provide this service. If this is the case you will need to submit the original certificates, as we are unable to accept photocopies verified by anyone other than a British Council official.

Alternatively, you should contact the appropriate awarding/examining authority and arrange for them to send a certified statement/transcript of your results directly to us.

If the transcript/statement of results cannot be provided in English, then please provide us with both the original copy and a translation, duly stamped and signed by an official translator. It’s important that you submit both the original and the translation of the original.
