Hi,

All those PhD students who got ITAs under Express Entry in 2015 kindly connect here and share your experience. I have 4 years of foreign experience with 1 year of PhD study completed. I need to know whether I can count my GRA in Canada towards FSW and whether it can give me some extra CRS points?

ECA for Phd without masters

Hello,

I am new to this forum. I have PHd from IIT delhi and 2 yrs experience. I convereted my mtech program after 1st year to PHD in IIT delhi. For getting ECA from WES do I need to send them 1st year Mtech course work.I dont have any Mtech final degree completion certificate.

any chance WES will give me to explain that I converted my degree.

If this question has been answered anywhere else, I am sorry for that.

Write to WES and explain your situation. I don't think it will create any issues. People do it all the time (pretty common in US and Canada).
