Hi!

I'Ve just submitted a profile to express entry, I graduated 2 years ago from a private institution in Vancouver (Vancouver Institute of Arts) , my program was a 1 year diploma. A few months ago I was told by an immigration consultant that diplomas from Canadians private institutions were not eligible to get the 15 extra points you get under the new system, but when I filled my profile I was given the extra 15 points, even though I specified that it was not from a public Institution.
has anyone here gotten those extra points as well? I'm a little bit concerned that my application might be rejected if my diploma is not valid.

thank you very much

As long as they have DLI number, they will be good to go. Check Cic website
