For his college eduaction he took a 3-year course in software engineering however he completed the course for 5 years. Should I indicate 5 years on the form or the standard course completion which is 3 years.

Standard periods


1) 6-Yaers
2) 3-Years


Additionally spent period should not be counted as your educational yaer. Does not matter how much time you took to cmplete the course.


Wait for other seniors too.

To the Seniors,

1 more question though, should we attach a notarized letter of explanation for his education especially for his college degree since the number of years will be evident on the personal history part of the background declaration? I was thinking this would create a discrepancy so a letter of explanation is neceessary. Please enlighten me.

thank you.
