I have observed that there are many universities abroad that have mandated Students to meet certain eligibility criteria at all universities and colleges in order to be considered for admission to an overseas programme. If you have any backlogs, a Backlog Certificate will be required by the university to validate your academic performance. While some institutions prefer applicants with clean academic records and no backlogs, many universities choose students based on their performance on some popular exams. Other selection criteria may include your curricular and extracurricular accomplishments.
