then you will need to do a currency conversion. If you have any unpaid tuition fees then you will need

to receive a copy of your birth certificate. If you use your legal guardian(s)’ bank account as proof of
financial, we will need to see a court letter confirming they are your legal guardian(s).

The bank statements should be not more than 31 days old. You must show that the money has been
held in the account for a minimum of 28 consecutive days. The account balance must not drop below
