Got ECA saying 4 years Bachelors equivalent for 3 years BA + 2 years MA!

[ajsingh]

Hi,

I recently received my ECA report from CES-University of Toronto for my spouse (having full time five years study, including 3 years Bachelor of Arts + 2 Year Master of Arts), and ECA report says:

Assessment Outcome: Four-year Bachelor's Degree from a recognized university

Can anyone tell, if I can appeal to CES to re-consider it for equivalent to Master's degree, as my spouse has done Master of Arts?

Please reply urgently. Thanks in advance.

This happens often since Canadian bachelor degrees are four years (not three). You can certainly request reconsideration - however the assessment might not change.

it does seem unfair as with WES i had my qualifications done of AVCE, HND and Bachelors and i could claim two or more. makes no sense that someone with a masters can claim less than me

Hi I know this is a while after you've posted but I haven't found much on this subject anywhere. I'm in the same soup since I have the exact qualifications mentioned and I heard CES was more lenient than WES when it came to Masters recognition.

Did you share both Masters (the highest qualification) and Bachelors to CES-University of Toronto?

Also, if you're comfortable sharing the university name, I would really appreciate that.

Thanks in advance.
