Legal Document Preparation

As you are starting to prepare for applications, it is essential to have official legal documents up to date. Most Countries/locations issuing visas require at least 6 months of validity upon the date of application, and students interested in the UK need at least 1 year of validity. Checking your passport expiration date is of the highest importance the year before applying to universities due to continued Covid-19 cases and random shutdowns. I recommend that if a student is in the Class of 2023 and their passport expires before July 2024, to get a new one. It saves headaches and anxiety if you can apply early. UK applications require a valid passport in order even to apply. So having it done at the end of G11 or over the summer into G12 would be the best plan on action.
