No need to worry you can apply for immigration, even i got same report and i applied for pnp got ITA and waiting for my nomination and also i have confirmed with WES and got positive reply.
Were you able to claim points for Masters Degree still? Or you ended up using just Bachelors ?

No they will not accept acics degree from now onwards i am saying about the people who got wes report as masters from non accredited institution can apply for express entry
Hey Harsha,
Are you saying that students (with a degree from a nationally accredited university) who apply in the future won’t get points for their degree?
Of course, ACICS is provisionally accredited til June 2018. But if Stratford gets the ACCSC accreditation after that, will we be able to earn points for that?

Not nationally or internationally whether it has acics or not.If stratford will get new accredition then its fine otherwise NO.

Hi, I have a Master's degree from Stratford University which WES did not recognize it. I have given IELTS exam twice with scores over 7 in all Sections except in writing which I am stuck at 6.5 twice.I have over 5 years of experience as a Software Programmer in USA, looking to apply for PR. Please let me know if anyone had luck with other Assessment Institutions with Stratford Degree. Thanks in Advance.
Did you find any option of getting the stratford degree recognized?

But it says 'Masters Degree from a non-recognized institution', doesn't it mean it's still a masters?
Did you already accept an ITA with Master's degree in the profile? Did you check with any CIC immigration official about that?

No. To be able to list it as a Masters in your profile and get points for it - it would need to be from a recognized institution.

Stratford degree is a worthless piece of paper. You most likely used it to abuse CPT and now want Master's points for it too?

Stratford is a scam university which is under investigation by uscis for admitting a large proportion of international students, esp india. basially they take money and give out i20's and have many online courses. WES did the right thing.
