GlobalVisora uses a source hierarchy designed for information that may affect international applications and decisions.
Preferred sources
- Government departments and official immigration authorities
- Embassies and consulates
- Official visa and application portals
- Universities, recognised schools and scholarship providers
- Employer or authorised recruitment pages
- Reputable news organisations for clearly attributed current events
What “verified” means
A verified label means the central claim was checked against an identifiable source at the stated review date. It does not mean GlobalVisora controls the programme or guarantees that the information will never change.
Links and dates
Where practical, guides link directly to the responsible authority rather than a search-results page. Time-sensitive information should include the applicable period or a last-reviewed date.
Conflicting information
When credible sources conflict, we prioritise the responsible authority, identify the uncertainty and avoid presenting an unconfirmed claim as settled fact.
Reader verification
Before paying or submitting an application, readers should open the official source, confirm that applications are open and verify current eligibility, fees and deadlines.
