Express Entry Profile - Education with Multiple Degrees

[Ahmadk]

Hello Everyone,

First of all, thank you for taking the time to answer questions. This forum has been of great help!!

I have a question about adding my education credentials to the Express Entry Profile.

In Irish colleges there are two ways to pursue a full bachelors degree in engineering, the following is a way that consists of two stages that grant you two bachelor degrees, and you can simply quit after stage 1 and seek work:

1: Bachelor Tech - Ordinary: 3 years course with a bachelor degree in the end (called level 7), and once you are done with it you have the option to pursue a second program for 2 more years for a
2: Bachelor of Engineering - Honours: 2 years long (called level 8)

Now I just received the ECA report (Thank god at last!) and the Bachelor Tech is equivalent to a 3 years Bachelor degree, and the Bachelor of Engineering is equivalent to a 4 years Bachelor degree.

Should I add these credentials as two separate degrees or as a single degree? And would either of these options affect my CRS score?


Again, thank you for this forum!

Put 2 separate. You will get more point for 2 degrees!

I would love that but wouldn't there be a risk of refusal?Or is this ok?

Refusal for what?
you got 2 degrees per Wes evaluation.
Just write it exactly as per wes report.

Thank you!! I will do that. I am just being paranoid to be honest!

Yeah, you are not the only one. This all process is stressful as hell.

No problem. I am not an expert. Just saying how I understand it.

what is written on wes in degree summary? It is like the first line on top on Wes report? It they mention 2 degrees I am sure you ok to claim 2.

The summary just says Master’s Degree (that is the third degree that I sent them. I forgot to mention it earlier), but in the credential analysis it says that each of the bachelor degrees are equivalent to a Canadian one.

It doesn’t matter then at all.
you have masters. They give you points for masters(highest degree you have).
