Please note: If you accidently upload a wrong document in the MyUM portal, you can no
longer remove it from your digital file. However, you can still upload the right document,
but this does not replace the incorrect one. UM judges which documents are right.
Documents required for all programmes
For all programmes, you need to upload the following documents in the My UM portal:
A recent passport picture. The passport picture must satisfy certain requirements.
A Copy of your valid passport or identity card. Make a copy of the page with
