I have completed my MBA from SZABIST Karachi, Pakistan and got the degree verified by HEC too, but for ECA I wonder which legitimate and authorized body should i pursue as my university (SZABIST) is not appearing in the list of designated institutes in WES & CES both, I am very curious to know this urgently, i will appreciate from the bottom of my heart if I get opinions from experts and experienced people in this forum.

Hoping to get feedback with valuable information.

TIA

Thank you for your swift response Moonarch, but there is no such list in their website showing designated Universities, they just stated on their website that university should be.
  • The institution is formally approved by a designated competent authority within its own country as a quality institution.
  • The institution is widely accepted by other institutions and agencies, both within and outside the country.
I just want to make sure, is IQAS accept and assess credentials from SZABIST.

Furthermore, i also find Comparative Education Service (CES) which simply stated few universities which they do not asses credentials for. how about that CES ?

They ve not shown about eligible institutes from pakistan but ineligible institutes are mentioned there on site like PIMSAT, Newport ETC..so it s confirmed that ur uni is not among ineligible Univs...
Yes IQAS accepts SZABIst...to ensuring yourself u can mail/ call them with ur query...bt m 100% sure szabist is eligible for assessment..

WES & CES require too many documents thats why i went with IQAS hence the vital issue is time taking process with IQAS they take around 12 weeks..

Hi Brother, I am new to the forum and working on ECA now a days. I am also from Pakistan and I studied from University of Lahore and when I enter my Uni. name in WES online application a message pops up which says " WES does not evaluate academic records from University of Lahore at this time. Do not include this credential in your application. If included, this will cause a delay in processing your evaluation report. " Did you find any luck to complete your ECA process. I didn't send them documents but in initial checking of application I found this hurdle. Please guide me and advise me what method to use. Thanks.
