Registration Documents: Completeness and Consistency
The document set
IUP registration normally requires an application form, identity document, high school diploma or graduation certificate, academic transcripts, English proficiency evidence, photographs, payment proof, and, for international applicants, a passport. Some cycles also ask for a recommendation, statement of purpose, or portfolio. The exact list belongs to the current official instructions; use that list as the checklist.
Core rules and concepts
- Names and birth dates must match the identity document and passport.
- Documents in another language usually need an official or certified translation.
- English test results must be valid at the required deadline, not merely at the test date.
- Upload clear scans in the accepted format and size; blurry files can be rejected.
- A conditional offer may require the final diploma or final transcript later.
Worked example
An applicant's transcript is in Indonesian and the portal requires English. The applicant uploads the original transcript plus a certified English translation. The name on the transcript is shortened, while the passport has the full name. The applicant adds a name-consistency affidavit or official name-change proof. The reasoning is that translation solves language, while an affidavit solves identity mismatch; one does not fix the other.
Traps that cost marks
Submitting an expired IELTS or TOEFL score; missing legalization or certification; exceeding the file-size limit so the upload silently fails; and assuming a missing document can be supplied after the deadline. Also check that the English test type is accepted by the current cycle.
