Double major at university???

[Yunudaddy]

Hello,

I graduated from university(4years) almost a decade ago with double major in Business Administraion and American Studies. Will I get 119 points by being refered as 2 degrees or 112pointe for just one Bachelor's degree?

Thank you for your help in advance.

The final conclusion should be from WES.
I think for double majors, you only received one degree certificate and your second major is simply mention on your transcript. In that case, it is considered one degree and you will only get 112 points.

I just looked up the certificate of graduation. In one paper, it says 1st major degree: bachelor of arts in international studies, 2nd major degree: bachelor of business administration. Aren't these considered as 2degrees? so 119points on EE?

Thanks. Mgnlky. Do I apply for 119 points after all according to your info? Just want to make sure.

Have you got your ECA from Wes yet?

 

[Yunudaddy]

No. Not yet.

 

[kryt0n]

No. Not yet.

You can't create your profile until you have it.

What you put down here is what WES class you as.

Pretty much what Kyt0on says. You can't create your EE profile and apply until you have the ECA. If Wes (or whomever you use) says you have 2 degrees, you can claim 2. If they say you only have 1, you can only claim one. My thoughts are you would likely be able to claim 2, but my opinion doesn't count to CIC.
