Hi - a levels is considered a college degree - so with bachelors you will be given an equivalency of bachelors.
WES ECA- O/A Levels Pakistan candidates - Complete process
- Thread starter Akberansari
- Start date
Cambridge goes out of the picture if you have made the equivalency for A and O levels.
So this is what I did
Background:
- O levels from city school (a couple of private papers)
- A levels from city school (a couple of private papers)
- Bachelors in CS
- Got my bachelors attested and sealed from HEC
- Got my equivalency made for o and a levels
- Had a name problem in one so submitted Afiddavit to IBCC with my correct name
- Attested equivalency from IBCC and got it in a sealed envelope
- Did DHL with one big DHL envelope having 2 sub envelopes
- IBCC attested envelope having matric and inter
- HEC attested having bachelors.
Also, if you dont want to go through the whole equivalency thing you can just ask them to send it to WES - they charge per session.
So lets say your A levels is all in one session - just send that - no need to send AS level certs.
Hi,
This thread has been a big help. Could anyone please confirm whether this is what I need to do as an O/Alevel student who has a bachelors degree from a uni here. This post was made 5 years ago so I am wondering if some things have changed. I tried calling IBCC but no one ever picks up any call (their office is now on University Road btw).
For IBCC:
- Take O/Alevel originals, copies of both, NIC copy, Passport PIC
- Fill the form and deposit the Challan at a nearby bank (I think its 2000 per foreign qualification with marks). Does anyone have any specifics on the form? There's one given on their website, do we have to just submit one collectively for O/Alevels or is this only for A/levels but we need to bring O-levels because thats a prereq for Alevels (/secondary education) equivalence?
- Submit all of these, take the receipt, and wait 15-20 days,
- Get the equivalence and originals back, and submit the equivalence for verification
- Submit the form/deposit the Challan for this (+2 verified copies).
- Get the original verified equivalence and 2 verified copies of equivalence back.
- Ask IBCC to seal and stamp the verified copy.
For HEC:
- These days, only the TCS service is being offered
- Submit degree, transcript, 2 copies of each, NIC copy through TCS and give them a separate envelope for attested copies
- Pay the amount at the TCS express branch and ask them to get the attested copies sealed and stamped
Once you get both of these sealed and stamped envelopes back, you can submit both of these together via a postal service (right?) I am assuming none of these actually require the WES reference except the last step when you are mailing it to them.
Would really appreciate if anyone could verify this.
Thank you!

Has anyone done WES evaluation for his/her BBA (H) degree from Cbm/IoBM? If yes, what equivalency did you get?
Hi, this thread has been the most helpful in figuring out the process for o/a levels certificate holders. Thank you everyone for sharing your experiences.
Can someone please also let me know if the IBCC is open these days or if they've gotten any procredures done from there lately, since they never pick up their calls! (By these days I mean the lockdown situation)

Just a heads up. They are open but are only taking documents through TCS. The staff is so incompetent though, they dont tell you things properly. I was wondering how one would go about getting it attested, verified and sealed/stamped through TCS considering how it was done manually before. No one ever picks up a call either.
A further (and better) heads up. I emailed them a few times and I got a lovely email today that the higher secondary education documents no longer need to be sent. So it's only HEC attestation now - as it should be. Cheers
Wow that sounds amazing. Did you go through the process then without the higher secondary education documents? Would be great if you could confirm!
I did, without the higher secondary education requirements. Just the attested copies of degree and transcript sealed by HEC, that I mailed to WES myself via TCS.
