Hello,
I am in the middle of filling the express entry form and need some urgent help :)

I got 5 different credentials(degrees/diplomas) evaluated by WES. Overall I get a Master's degree equivalence in the ECA report. I want to know if I should provide details of all the degrees/diplomas in the express entry application or simply providing details of one bachelor's degree and one master's degree is sufficient.

I happen to ask this question because I feel WES may have made a mistake while Evaluating my degrees/certificates.
I did MS(finance) from ICFAI university(distance learning) and was also awarded a CFA charter(*nothing to do with US CFA) in the middle of the course. I sent both the certificates to WES for evaluation. I assume that the institute had sent only one transcript for MS(finance) and not for CFA.
THE ISSUE: Theoretically, CFA could be completed within 1 year but I too my own sweet time and finished it in 3 years.
Now WES has evaluated the CFA course as Bachelor's degree(4 years) and MS(finance) as Postgraduate diploma (one year).

Now,while filling the academic details in the express entry form If I put complete/full academic year for CFA as 1 year while WES evaluates it as Bachelor's degree(4 years). Do you think it will create a problem when I send the documents post ITA especially when I won't even be able to send a transcript with it.
I also have Canadian equivalent of Postgraduate diploma (one year), Master's degree and Bachelor's degree apart from these two credentials mentioned above.
So, would it be okay if I just pick two or three credentials from the ECA report instead of all 5 and provide it in the application so as to avoid any confusion in the future ?

try with the minimum first.. only master's degree equivalent. If the profile is accepted, and you get correct points then that should do. Eventually you only need to show the WES evaluation.

Completely false. After ITA, you need to upload the degrees and diplomas that the ECA is based on. Not doing so will lead to rejection of the application.

I recommend you mention all degrees and diplomas that your ECA is based on.
That's news to me, thank you for correcting! So I guess degrees for which we don't have WES evaluation need not be mentioned in the Express entry profile. For example if you get WES for your PhD then no need to mention about Master's and Bachelor's in EE profile.

Hi,

Even I have done the same ICFAI course and awarded MS Finance. Could you tell me how did you manage to get the transcript from the ICFAI university. It has been such a long time and erstwhile Hyderabad university has dis-integrated into so many factions. I would be extremely grateful if you could help me with the contact details of of person or office who helped you through it.

Hi, very interesting to hear about your experience. I have the US CFA and at most the institute is providing is an acknowledgement letter (not transcripts). Do you think this alone could help me in my case in fetching additional pts?

I have done ms Finance level 1 from ICFAI ...and got Diploma in business Finance for it.

My BCom is already certified from WES as 3 years bachelors. I m planning to get the diploma also certified from WES.


Does Wes recognise it ??or IQAS ??

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
