Please I want to ask if " certified from the university " as requested by the scholarship body means that we will have to take our documents back to school to be certified again, or the certificates we have already will do-- I mean the original one we have at hand is the certified one?

Have anyone been able to finish this application? i am having serious issues submitting it.

Any news from PAU?

Hoping to hear goodnews this month end/early february....
