Level of Education for Express Entry for Post graduate diploma

[Thegirlhasnoname]

I have completed a 2 year MBA program which WES has evaluated as Postgraduate diploma (one year)
So in Level of education (required), I have added - Master's Degree, or professional degree needed to practise in a licensed profession
and in Level of education (Canadian Equivalent) as per ECA, i added - One year program at a university, college, trade or technical school, or other institute

Is that correct? The option for two or more degrees is not present. I am sure whether I should decline my ITA or go ahead with it.
Can anyone please provide their thoughts.

Thanks in advance

100% Correctly Done. Submit your profile, system will automatically count your points and award you points for "two or more degrees" if you also have listed your bachelors degree.

Thank you @ishq74 for your prompt reply.

If you are currently filling out PR application form then when you finish click preview score. Your score will show 7 points higher than your actual score because this system considers your actual level of education not the ECA level of education. This is a system glitch so don't worry about it. A case analyst will count your CRS score manually during assessment phage and as long as your score is above the cut off tie break score, you will be fine.

May I ask from which Institution you did MBA from?
I did my PGDM and it was evaluated as equivalent to Bachelor's in Canadian terms by ECA.

Dear @ishq74 , Could you please help clarify a doubt I have on this matter.

I completed a 2 year MBA program which WES has evaluated as Postgraduate diploma (one year)
So in Level of education (required), I have added - Master's Degree, or professional degree needed to practise in a licensed profession
and in Level of education (Canadian Equivalent) as per ECA, i added the same as well - Master's Degree, or professional degree needed to practise in a licensed profession

While submitting the application I didn't think the option for one year program at a university, college, trade or technical school, or other institute is same as masters. Looks like I've made a mistake here.

I have received my ITA (CRS 479). Should I decline it and renter the pool or do the correction and provide an LOE? I recalculated the CRS score and its decreasing by 7 (CRS 471) points but I still clear the cutoff (CRS 462). Please let me know. Not able to figure this out via various threads on this forum. Thanks much in advance.

No need to decline ITA. Just enter correctly in your final application and write a LOE. You will be fine.

Hey!
I guess its a late reply to this thread. I'm on the same boat. While submitting EE profile I had selected 2 or more degrees and submitted the profile. I received my ITA for the score of 472 calculated based on my credentials. I had provided the following details,
For BE:
Level of Education:- Bachelor degree, ECA:-4-year Bachelors Degree
Level of Education:- Masters degree, ECA:- 1-year postgraduate Diploma

Now when I'm filling my PR application for the same Educational Credentials but getting a Preview score of 479 (7 points more)
For MBA:
Level of Education:- Bachelor degree, ECA:-4-year Bachelors Degree
Level of Education:- Masters degree, ECA:- 1-year postgraduate Diploma

Will this cause any problem with the acceptance of PR application, as the Preview score is more. Should I change the Level of Education for MBA to 2-year degree or retain it as Masters degree? I'm really confused about this! Please help..

Hello All,

Please help me in submitting my profile for Express Entry. I have got the evaluation done from IQAS and I am finding it a bit confusing. Here is the brief assessment report. I want to know, what to select in Level of education (Canadian Equivalent) as per ECA?

For B.COM (Clear about level and Equivalency)
Program Description: Three years undergraduate degree program
Comparative level of achievement in Canada: Bachelors of Commerce degree.

For PGDM(Unsure about level and Equivalency)
Program Description: Two years graduate diploma program
Comparative level of achievement in Canada: Graduate Diploma with a focus in management.

Thanks in advance.
