Education level to be selected for Express Entry for Bachelor's degree &postgraduate diploma( 1 yr)

[Divya Arun]

Hi All,

I have done B.tech in IT ( 4 years ) and MBA part-time from IGNOU ( which took me 5 years to complete ) . On WES credential evaluation, it got converted to "Bachelor's degree (four years) and postgraduate diploma (one year)" .

I have the below queries -
a) I was expecting that MBA will be converted to Masters. Even I checked with WES degree Equivalency Tool which converted it to Masters. Then why it was converted to postgraduate diploma? For WES evaluation for MBA, I had send my MBA degree certificate and last sem mark list ( which is consolidated mark-list of all sems ). I had done WES credential evaluation for B.Tech long back. Hence I didn't send any B.tech related certificates along with MBA.

b) With the current evaluation, what education level should I select? Is it "Two or more post-secondary credentials , one of which was 3 years or longer) ?

Please help!!!

Thanks,
Divya

A) the equivalency tool gives a generic result which can differentiate when you actually get the Wes result depending on type of course, institution, years etc. Currently only MBA from IIMs and few select institutions in India are being considered as masters by Wes

B) yes it's 2 or more ..
