Complete Your ApplyBoard Profile

1. Access Your Profile

Log in to your ApplyBoard account. On the left-hand navigation menu, select Profile to get started.

2. Verify Your Contact Details

Communication is everything in the admissions world. Make sure to verify your email and phone details. This ensures you receive real-time updates on your application status and don't miss any critical requests from the school.

3. Fill in Mandatory Fields

Look for the red asterisks (*)—these indicate mandatory information.

  • Personal Information: Review and confirm your pre-filled information.

  • Note: Providing a middle name is optional, but your first and last names should match your passport exactly.

4. Update Your Education History

This is the most important part for the admissions team. Review your pre-filled education summary and ensure it is 100% accurate.

  • The Full Picture: You must complete details for all previous and current institutions, moving chronologically all the way back to High School.

Why This Matters Right Now

By completing these steps immediately after creating your application, you:

  • Remove Roadblocks: Prevent the admissions team from having to pause your application to ask for missing information.

  • Boost Accuracy: Ensure ApplyBoard has your academic history to ensure the correct requirements are added to your application.

  • Stay Informed: Verified contact info means you're the first to know when you get an offer!

That’s it! Once these four steps are done, your profile is ready, and your journey to studying abroad is officially in high gear.

What’s Next: Complete Your Pending Requirements

Once your profile is finished, your application will automatically update with all of the Pending Requirements. These are the specific documents (like transcripts, passports, or English test results) needed for the program you’ve chosen.
