Hello all,
I am student from LPU, Punjab, India in B.Tech program. I have completed my degree and now wish to join Centennial college for further education. Our university does not provide us with the Individual Semester wise mark-sheets (as required by the CIC under SPP), but rather a consolidated transcript which includes all the subjects and grades semester-wise along with each semester GPA and a total CGPA at the end of that 2 page transcript.

My queries are :

1.Will such transcripts with a valid authorization letter from the University be valid if I want to apply for a study visa?
2.I had backlogs in my degree,which apparently do not appear on the original transcripts as per Uni. policy, will the WES evaluation need any extra documents in such a case?
3.Can WES know about any details other than that provided on the transcripts? Will they dig into the matter just for backlogs?
And the last one for now is 4.When is the best time to apply for a study visa if one is aiming for a Sept '17 intake? I mean in which month?

Thank you.

1. Consolidated mark sheets aren't acceptable to CHC India. (Check out with someone from LPU who successfully applied to CHC.)
2. WES evaluation won't work for study visa application in India.

Hey J5M, thanks for your reply. If WES evaluation is not for study visa purposes in India..then which service I should opt for? Please guide if you have any ideas..also won't the type of transcripts I mentioned above work? Cz Uni.said students applying for Canada from there also use the same given by the Uni.
Thanks.

1. That's why I suggest you to check out with someone from LPU who already went through the process. "Technically", consolidated mark-sheets aren't acceptable in India.
2. I believe it depend how you/your school interpret consolidated mark-sheets. In some cases, consolidated mark-sheets worked very well just because of their detailed/different format than a regular one.

That's very appreciable J5M...Thank you.I have contacted an alumni..hopefully he'll guide me through this. Just one last thing, which service to go for if not WES? In India generally which is being used for such evaluations?

1: Yes it's a valid transcript(most of the universities have the grading system)
2: It will appear on your original transcript with an E grade(behind your transcript it is clearly mention what E stand for and that is not your consolidated transcript that is your official transcript because it have a specific certificate number in the bottom and from that number anybody can verify your details from their website)
3: I don't know
4: as soon as possible, best time will be first week of July I guess.

Hey c_note, thanks for your reply...but as far as I have seen on other seniors' transcripts, once you clear the subject, they don't mention the E grade against that subject anymore...and official original transcript will be issued once all the subjects are cleared...so how can an E grade be on it? Please resolve this one..Tha ks.

That would be great. Thank you for all the support. :) How and where do we have to send the official transcripts (those in the sealed envelope)? WES or any other place? Or directly to the institution I am applying?
