Complete Guide to Annamalai University Distance Postgraduate Diploma Admission and ECA

[aditya9787]

Guide updated for Academic year 2019-20 (May 2020 Exams)

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR NEW STUDENTS (MAY 2020) : Annamalai's NAAC 'A' accreditation is expiring in Dec 2019. UGC has changed the criteria for universities offering distance education to receive 'A' and it affects few universities including annamalai. There is a civil case pending in court regarding the same. I spoke to someone at annamalai. They said they have already applied for renewal of NAAC. Either way, DDE is valid till academic session 19-20 as per court order. So there is no issue taking admission for may 2020 exams.

Hey Aditya, awesome info!!

Annamalai waits for the hard copy of the verification documents sent by WES. That takes 25 days. Once they receive it, they will email you to make the reverification payment. Then they reply to WES via email. within 7-10 days.

 

[aditya9787]

@aditya9787 in WES Academic request form https://applications.wes.org/OnlineApp/pdf/ca/International_Transcript_Request.pdf should i enter my name as in my degree certificate (My Initial is not expanded) or as in my Passport / WES Profile name (My Initial is expanded in my passport and in WES Profile). Just curious did you faced this problem? Any help is greatly appreciated thanks.

WES will use the name as per your degree. They will add a note that names are different in degree and profile. You will need to get a 'one and the same person' affidavit made for EE.

 

[aditya9787]

@aditya9787 - This was really helpful. Followed these steps and have sent it to WES recently. Just wanted to know if the University mailed or messaged you the tracking number once they post the documents?

You have to keep emailing them and they will send you the tracking number.

Hi Aditya. I am in Toronto. and in your STEP 3 - SPOT ADMISSION, you mentioned that "Someone will see the original and attest the copy" . As I have my original certificates with me in Toronto . I am not sure how that will work as I will not be able to go in person. Is it okay for them if we give them copy of the originals ?
