Two Degrees or One?

[2nose]

Hi everyone,
I have a three year degree in commerce, plus a 1 year post grad diploma in taxation. WES assessed this as a single four year bachelor degree. When I am filling out my EE profile, should I include this as 1 Ba, or as two degrees/diplomas?

Thanks!

Bachelors only

How come does it evaluate as 2 or more since wes evaluated them as one?

Not to hijack the thread but wed evaluated me as 5 years bachelors plus 2 years post graduate study,what does that qualify under?

I think i qualify under professional degree needed to practice in a licensed profession acc to the link you sent me since my results are 5 years of professional study in dentistry and 2 years of graduate dental education

K am dentistry professional study accredited for 5 years plus 2 years post graduate studies so that means in total 7 years or you mean it should be written in the same format as above?

 

[dell2]

on your WES report, it should be reported as 5-7 years.
What does it say on your WES report ?

Bachelors only

Are you sure? Is there anything in the legislation/manuals that you re basing this on? The WES report is a two page report, and each credential is evaluated individually as well, and both are recognized as one BA and then one post grad. The assessment at the very top lists it as a single BA. So when I get EE points, I can only get them for one degree, even though they were two completely separate credentials?

If according to WES both degrees are equivalent to 1 four year bachelor degree. Unfortunately that's what you can claim on CIC.

What I think problem is if you send altogether all transcripts to WES they merge degrees and make it as one if in the same field. That's what happens, that's just me don't quote me here. You can confirm with others as well.
This is just my opinion.

But according to your evaluation you can select bachelor's only.

Where did you study bachelor's and taxation? Which country ? Same college ?
