Dr Kafoutchoni’s reading

The key word here is « after enrolment »: the visa contribution does not apply upfront, so it should not be counted as money available to submit the application. The right sequence is to lock in the final project version, the two required NRPDTP pro formas, and the references, then check the English-language proof before submitting through UEA. The real selection is not only about scientific interest, but about fitting a precise project into a tightly framed doctoral route, with only a limited number of projects allowed. Submit one prioritized application, then keep the visa and status documents ready for the next step.
