I have completed my Bachelor & Master from ABC college which is affiliated with XYZ university. At the end of study degree is awarded by XYZ university. In the degree certificate, it is mentioned that candidate has studied in ABC college which is affiliated with university. My question is what should I mention (college name or university name) in "Name of school/institution" field while creating my express entry profile? However ECA by WES only mention university name.

Is there a separate option for University?

I used the name of the university that awarded the degree to keep the ECA and the EE profile the same in terms of information provided.

What if the awarding institute is in another city. Then in the address for that period of time, should I write the awarding institute city's address or the college in which I studied, the address of that should be added? I was not a resident of the awarding body's city for one day, so how should I convince through my application? The name of the city is also a part of the name of the awarding body's name. Really confused on this matter..... !!!!

Well for ECA I entered the name of the city in which the degree was awarded. That is the name of the city of the board. I am still at the ECA stage of the application, so I haven't further proceeded. However, on ECA, the education institute and the board's name both are mentioned by ICES.
