When they wanted you to attach your education certificate, I assume they meant your degree certificate right?

I wasn’t too sure so I attached my degree transcript. Was also unsure whether we had to submit our A-level certificates but it only allowed one upload so hopefully that’s ok?

Fair enough, I uploaded my degree certificate as I have graduated. Usually if they wanted a transcript they would have said transcript I would have thought. I guess if you are yet to graduate then uploading your transcript makes sense since you would not have a final degree certificate.
