❓️ How to Fill in the Education Section with Multiple School Transfers or Disruptions?

Question:

I've changed schools multiple times during my elementary education and later dropped out of university. How should I document this in the education section?

Answer:

When entering your educational history, including instances of transferring schools or discontinuing studies, follow these guidelines:

General Guidance:

• Document Each School: List each institution you attended, regardless of whether you graduated.
• Status Selection: For each entry, select the status that best describes your situation (e.g., transferred, dropped out, took a leave of absence).
• Use End Dates: For the end date, use the month and year you stopped attending each institution.

For Elementary and Junior High:

• Approximate Dates: If you do not remember the exact month and year, it’s acceptable to use approximate dates.
• Add Notes: In the remarks section, explain any uncertainties so that the school understands your situation.
  • Example Note: "The dates are approximate as my memory of the exact period is unclear due to the time elapsed since the transfer."

For High School and Higher Education:

• Accurate Information Required: Ensure the information provided is precise, as higher education often requires more detailed records.

Additional Tips:

• Check with Your School: If you're unsure how to list your educational background, consider consulting with your school's administrative office or your SpeedVisa support contact.
• Keep Records: Where possible, keep documentation of your school records to help fill out this section accurately.
