Q9. I am a student and currently preparing the “schedule” document of the application to be submitted to my local municipality. Could you please advise what information should be included in the schedule?

A “schedule” is required for confirming how much time you need to spend on campus on a daily basis. Since class schedules do not include the time spent on research activities, ask your academic advisor to prepare a document showing your weekly schedule for research activities and have it certified with his or her signature or seal for submission, and submit it to your local municipality.
