Hi everyone,

I'm want to apply for an online masters degree in City, University of London; the program is a total of 180 accredited hours and can be completed within 1-5 years. Details to the program can be found from here.


My questions is: will it be evaluated by WES as an equivalent to a Canadian masters degree to increase my point to express entry?

Thank you Mona, you have made my day! :)

Is it possible to share with me any details regarding the online learning and/or City, University of London that you might have about this?

WES are a bit vague on this one and their assessment tool doesn't include neither online learning nor city, universioty of london (although they have Unieversity of London not "city").. not to mention it's almost impossible to reach out to WES via email to confirm any details which is very frustraiting.

Thank you again for your help!

I live in Jordan, and immigration isn't the only reason for doing this, however, this path is the shortest and the most financially feasible to increase my score and get a masters.

The detailed credential of the whole course is required to see if it's equivalent. The topics covered in each semester is the basic criteria and the credits allotted to it. Also the credits that is required by the final Thesis to award the final degree is significant. WES compares it to the similar course in Canada to check the similarity. "Most" online courses from UK have not been awarded Canadian equivalent masters by WES, but a full time education at the university campus does and it's 100% guaranteed. I hold a Masters from London btw
