Use UCAS’s official document upload guide for 2027 entry. Upload options appear in particular application sections depending on your answers. Uploading supporting documents is optional and does not replace completing the application questions.
UCAS says you cannot add or amend uploaded documents after the application has been submitted to UCAS. Review the files yourself before submission. If a university later requests documents through its own portal, follow that request even if you have already uploaded them to UCAS.
Your next step is to identify the relevant section, select the official document allowed there and check its readability and accepted format. For a Singapore applicant using international qualification records, consult the Education guidance rather than uploading every certificate you have collected.

Practical checks before you act
Match document to section
Use the current guide to determine which document belongs in the available upload area. Keep unrelated achievement certificates out of a qualification evidence upload. If the institution wants something additional, ask how it wishes to receive it rather than placing it in an unrelated section.
Check the actual file
Open the file you intend to send. Confirm that the full document is readable, correctly oriented and belongs to you. Check the current size and format restrictions before uploading. Keep an unaltered original available rather than modifying the substance of an official record.
Review before final submission
Make a short inventory of the files attached and compare it with your intended list. UCAS says changes are not available after submission to UCAS. Give yourself a final review point before sending, particularly if several versions have similar filenames.
Track later requests separately
Record any additional request from a university with its deadline and delivery channel. A UCAS upload and an institution’s document checklist are not interchangeable confirmations. After following a request, retain the acknowledgement and ask the institution about an unresolved item.
