IMM 5669 Education - What to put if I took longer than usual to finish my degree

[MeIriaDemasiado]

Hi all!!

I'm helping my cousin apply to his PR and I'm unsure of how to handle the Educational History on the Schedule A Background form.

My cousin took 8 years to complete his Bachelor's in Electronics Engineering (usually takes 5 years where he's from). What should I put in the box asking for the number of *successful* years completed of university? The number of years it took (8) or the number of years it should have taken (5)??

Thanks and apologies if this has been asked before. I searched the site extensively and couldn't find a definitive answer.

PS: This is my first post on the site. Happy to have found this community.

People who also took longer than 4 years to graduate. 2. I work and I major in computer science; I am worried I will fail if I take too many classes I include #4 because sometimes, anxiety makes us forget that most people simply don't You are by no means a failure for taking longer than 4 years to complete your degree.
