Good afternoon,

Can anyone advise me on my situation, please?. I would very appreciate that.

I have just received my ITA letter and will start doing my application now.

I had only one question about my education. Quick about my background, I attended both the construction and civil engineering program at Algonquin College. I studied 2 years of construction program first and only have to do the third year to get a civil engineering program(because those 2 programs have the same courses in the first 2 years ). Therefore, it only took me a total of 3 years to get both these certifications.

Thus, Would this consider as "two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees, One must be for a program of three or more years. "?.

I emailed and asked the International Student Advisor at my college and she suggested me to choose the '"two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees..." option. Therefore, when I claim the years of studying for both certification, I did Construction (2years from 2015 to 2017) and Civil (3 years from 2015 to 2018). However, the college website has just updated those program with some additional description, they have just updated that "the Civil Engineering (Duration: 3 years) is a continuation of the Construction Engineering". Now I confused and don't know what to do with this change.

Please help and I very appreciate that. Have a good day

Thanks, It'll a make huge impact on our score if this is true.
Hi,

Glad to hear that. I also submitted the LOE letter and attached the email conversation between me and my college RCIC advisor. And just hope the agent can consider it as a support document and explaination about my decision to choose that option.
