@legalfalcon you guys seem pretty knowledgeable around here would you please be able to clarify this question for me?
Sorry if this is not the right place for this query but no one has been able to help on the pre ITA thread. I figured people who have submitted their application could help.
I have a question on how to fill the education section in the express entry profile. I got my bachelors degree which IQAS evaluated as a 4 year degree. But it took me 5.5 years to get it because I transferred and attended 3 different universities.
I studied for 1 year at university A, then 1 year at university B and then finally transferred to university C - where I studied for 3.5 years and obtained my bachelor’s degree. So I spent 5.5 years in total for my university studies. The degree is evaluated as being a 4 year bachelor’s degree awarded by university C. The transferred credit allowed me to complete my degree faster at university C.
I don’t know how to fill the education section. I figured I would only include University C since that’s the one that awarded me my degree and the one for which I’m getting points. When I write the dates for which I attended University C it comes out to 3.5 years. I’m unsure if I should write 3 years or 4 years for the number of complete/full academic years because my transcript shows 7 semesters of University C + 4 semesters of transfer credits from previous universities.
Could someone please help me?
