2. Prepare documents and statements recommended from the Application Guide

Having information ready from the following guide in step 1, will really benefit input of data in the online form. The guide is what you will expect to see in the UBC Qualtrics (online form). Once you start an online application, you may continue at a later time only on the same computer and browser, but if you close the tab or get timed out you will need to start from the beginning.
