Hello All NPU Studied/ ACICS Folks,
Can we all have a quick whats-app/Skype group, were we can discuss our past present and experience, research or future information for verification approval of ACICS accreditation from any of the 4 Canadian organizations.

@sahi2, @canadalover111 ,@pnjuly1, @deesarva , @Mcanada12 ,@arun2633 ,@harsha0199 , @rajn, @bobby789 , @Sam_7511 ,@All_ACICS..

It would be good that we all tie up live means of quick communication medium for this issue we facing with of accreditation of ACICS . Many of folks like us were not aware of this prediction of future of ACICS issues and ended up putting our precious 2 years of our lifespan time, parents hard money and effort with no value and now its a draw back even for our carrier with no use both in USA and out of USA, keeping lot more folks even standing with h1b issue and opt extension or even GC following up into EB3 inside. Even till today many faced h1b filling issues after accreditation loss. Records shows that until 2016 it was a valued body. But due to some reasons it got vain to students who completed there education. Its would be good that if we raise our voting of interest reaching NPU Email- ISS@NPU.EDU or RECORDS@NPU.EDU or ACICS: (202)-336-6780(USA) or Perlices wakers gilliam :2023366769. (pwgilliam@acics.org) or reach respected helpful firm to keep them understand the effect ACICS accreditation loss made to many students carrier. Wish soon ACICS might be taken this issue into consideration or would at least release support agreement norm for students who completed there education before with hold of accreditation date.. Any Inputs / valid helpful directions are really appreciated. Many Thanks for all above folks for putting in your effort and research...

Yes . I did . No use . They are not evaluating our masters.
The procedure that these organizations are following seems too stupid and outdated. Even though the ACICS got its recognition restored, none of them are accepting our degree.
Guys, please keep posting if you have any kind of updates.

Guys I have done my Masters from NPU itself in the year 2015 but no use of it. WES or any other evaluating organisations are accepting the degrees from ACICS. I left USA an year back and currently planned to move CANADA but no use with my degree

Hey all -

I saw a handful of threads about how ACICS accredited Institutions aren't recognized by WES but no one has come back and said what other Evaluation Agency they tried (successfully). So I decided to make this new thread for all ECA Organizations for anyone's reference.

1. World Education Services :
We know for sure they won't recognize ACICS.​

2. International Credential Assessment Service of Canada:
I emailed ICAS on this topic and this is what they replied with
Thank you for your enquiry.
ICAS can provide a meaningful assessment only if the institution attended is regionally-accredited. NPU does not satisfy this requirement. As a result, we cannot provide a meaningful assessment.

Thank you
ICAS of Canada

3. International Credential Evaluation Service :
I emailed ICES and still awaiting a response from them; will update this thread.
[Update on 2/13] : ICES will not recognize as well. Below is what they replied back to me.
Unfortunately, we do not accept ACICS for accreditation.
4. Comparative Education Service – University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies :
I emailed CES and they are not revealing if they will recognize ACICS or not; they insist on applying for an evaluation to know it. Below is what they replied with.

Dear Applicant,

Thank you for your message.

CES assesses international degrees and diplomas issued by:

  • Post-secondary institutions (universities and colleges)
  • Secondary-level institutions (high schools)
  • CES may be able to assess in-progress academic programs for general use applications only.
CES does not assess informal, non-academic qualifications including:
  • Professional licenses and certifications (including those earned in conjunction with academic studies)
  • Vocational qualifications and training programs
  • Non-academic qualifications
  • Work experience
Please visit the CES Help Center for more information.

Unfortunately, CES cannot tell you in advance whether your credential/institution is recognized, or the equivalency of your credential. This is part of the assessment service that we offer to our clients. If you would like to have your academic credential(s) assessed, please apply to our services.

I have only listed 4 Orgs here but if you have any information on any other Org besides the aforementioned Orgs, please let me know; I can update this post.

Dear All,

First of all, thank you posting your insights for ACICS accreditation Universities. I got my WES evaluation PDF report on 08/07/2018. Please guide me, I also got the same report as University is not recognized. Below I have attached my PDF report screenshots.

Credential Authentication: Documents were sent directly by the institution
Country: United States of America
Credential: Master of Science
Year: 2016
Awarded By: California University of Management and Sciences
Status: ACICS Accredited (see remarks below)
Major/Specialization: Computer Information Systems
Canadian Equivalency: Master's degree from a non-recognized institution
Remarks: Only institutions accredited by one of the six regional accrediting agencies in the United States are regarded by WES as recognized in Canada.

Please help me guys, if I can use different evaluation other than WES. Please let us know, if anyone did ACICS University evaluation with different credentials evaluation organization.

Regards,
Venkat

Guys if there is any update regarding ACICS issue please keep posted

Thanks!
No update as yet ....
I think because of excessive work load on them they are least bothered about updating their recognition list and nonetheless they are making huge revenues by not disclosing the universities they recognise and which one they don’t.
I would suggest to try and max out ielts and that’s the only way we all acics students can enter Canada...

Hey friends,
Is there any hope to get evaluation from anyone of evaluation organization?
If no , then what should we mention in our EE or PNP profile like we studied from ACICS ACCREDITED UNIVERSITY & we don't have evaluation report?
