Reapplying
If you have already applied via uni-assist this year or last year and would like to reapply, take note of the information on this page. If you applied earlier than last year, please apply following the regular process.
Safekeeping period
For how long does uni-assist keep application documents?
We keep your hard copies until the end of the year following the receipt of your hard copies. We can reuse on-file hard copies for new applications, so you do not need to send these documents again.
An example:
Hard copies received on: 10 May 2024
Hard copies will be kept until: 31 December 2025
If you send us a new application within this period or submit new hard copies, the safekeeping period for all existing documents is reset.
After the safekeeping period ends, we destroy the hard copies.
We keep electronic documents up to 3 calendar years. During this time you do not have to re-upload documents you have already uploaded previously. After 3 calendar years we delete the electronic documents.
