ORIGINAL POSTER

I'm applying for a Non-B visa and my school will send me the paperwork so I can apply from my country. Does anyone know if I need the original documents mailed to me or will scanned copies do? Thanks.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is inquiring if original documents are needed for a Non-B visa application or if scanned copies are sufficient. Responses suggest that scanned copies may be acceptable, but the best advice is to confirm with the relevant consulate.
