Hello,

I just registered 40 minutes ago. Yet I can't post a new topic as the new topic button seems to be missing. So I am forced to hijack this post - my apologies. Please suggest how to post a new topic.

I am trying to get my ECA from the WES. But they don't have any option for the USA as the country of education. How can I get my ECA done for my MS degree? Besides, do I need to get my ECA done for my bachelors degree even if I have an MS degree?

Thanks

I am not sure why USA is not listed as a country of education..I got my ECA done from WES 2 months ago and I was able to select USA as a country of education.

You will need to get your ECA done for Bachelors and Masters.

If you get ECA for your masters degree as equivalent to Canadian masters you don't need ECA for bachelors, as you will get points only for your highest degree which is masters.

Try the free WES degree equivalency tool, if your institute shows up then WES will evaluate your degree if not you should write to them before paying fees and all.

Excuse me Mr. Canadahustler but I have to hijack your thread as well because I'm a newbie

I do have a Bachelor degree which is well recognised in WES database and 2 post-graduate diplomas in Management from Australian college (each is 6 months long)

Is there a minimum duration for post grad diplomas to be assessed as comparable to Canadian diplomas? Do they need to be each of one year long to be assessed as secondary certificate and get more CRS points?

Thanks folks

I think yes to be on the safer side you should send them a query to clarify whether they will assess your degree from ___ university before you pay the fees.

Can anyone please help me please !

I have a Bachelor Degree and it was assessed by WES as a four years Bachelor Degree . But also I have a CMA ( Certified Management Accountant ) Certificate from IMA ( Institute of Management Accountants ) in NJ USA .

How can I get this CMA evaluated ? WES mention that they do not evaluate such certificates !

Then , what CIC means by certificates and diplomas ?
