Hi @aditya9787

Want to reaffirm that PGD from Annamalai university without 2 semesters specified will still be evaluated as one or more degrees by WES. Are courses with exams just once are still applicable for the same?
Also can we apply for the course now since 2020-21 course must have already started?

Do you have any info if MCA Lateral from Annamalai University will be considered as masters?

Anyone heere appeared for PGD from Annamalai from overseas. Exams were conducted in Nov 2020(It was suppose to be July 20). They said results will be out in 3 months. Did anyone hear anything from the UNI or have any updates. Any chance I can get ECA done by end of April prior birthday to claim points.

Many thanks @aditya9787 with help of your detailed post able to finish wes procedure in less than 10mins.
To add some more points annamalai university is approx 3kms from chidhambaram bus depot and railway station. better to keep every documents and print out ready before visiting univ.

Mini bus plying between university and bus depot will help reaching us there. we have to get down in Admin bus stop inside university.
After all procedure we should submit our transcript in computer room on 1st floor. When i enquired they said will upload our documents in wes website directly. Got an email from wes within a week stating "One of the institutions listed on your application has uploaded a document to your account".

Hi... Detailed explanation is really helpful. However is there any change in process due to COVID. In one of the post it is mentioned that now Annamalai university has electronic connection with WES.

1) Do we still need to send the hard copies of the certificates to university through post or courier.
2) Or we can send the scanned copies of certificates through email with other details like WES reference number is enough?.

If anyone has applied and obtained transcripts kindly help to reply.

Annamalai sends e-transcripts now instead of physical transcripts. That is the only change. The process of applying for transcripts remains the same. Please go through the new guide in my signature.

I had recently written to them and they responded as below. Seems like they don't know about the electronic process and still rely on hard copies.

FOR GETTING TRANSCRIPT


As per our University procedure, for getting Transcript we attest photocopies of the Mark Sheets and Degree Certificate ( sent by you to COE, AU). Along with the attested copies we will issue a letter by mentioning information such as programme of study, duration of study, class obtained by the student and Medium of instruction.

For issuing Transcript the candidates are requested to pay 75 US $ dollars (by calculating current value of US dollar in the market). Please send a requisition letter (mention specifically that whether you need medium of instruction letter) along with Hard copies of your certificates, filled in WES form to "The Controller of Examinations, Annamalai University, Annamalai Nagar – 608 002". Further, you are requested to mention the complete postal address to which it has to be dispatched.
