Top priority
Always confirm final requirements from the official source.
Study abroad rules can change without warning. Before paying fees, booking travel, choosing a school, or submitting documents, students should confirm the latest requirement directly from the relevant government, university, scholarship, test‑provider, or accommodation‑provider website. Lumivera helps students understand how those updates apply to their own plan.
