Hi guys,

Can anyone help me to figure out the option of Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees. One must be for a program of three or more years?

I got a 2 year college diploma, and then I transfered 1 year credits to University to complete a 3 year bachelor program. Obvilously, my program is a 3 years program, but I only study 2 years, so am I eligible for this option?

Thanks guys :)

An interesting question, as I had something similar done by wes, and when speaking to an immigration consultant, said I could.select two or.more. I will post my result.lster from wes when I get chance.

So effectively, it is a 1 year diploma and 3 years bachelors (as one year diploma credits was transferred to bachelors). On the face of it, it looks like you may be able to select 'two or more degrees..' option. But it all depends on what is mentioned as the Canadian Equivalence Summary in your ECA report. Have you completed ECA?

No, I haven't completed the form yet. My agent said I'm not eligible for the option, but she couldn't give me a appropriate answer. :-[

Send your educational documents to WES and ensure to keep a Letter of Explanation detailing out your case. Based on the report you can proceed with your Express Entry profile.

Agreed.

Go ahead with WES and once you have the results of that, you will know what option you can go with.

It is too hard to guess without an official result as your country and university makes a big difference in how WES evaluates a particular degree.

I have two one one year of the program in Canada from different colleges. When I count my CRS score from the CRS tool it gives me 389 points overall. but when I enter my educational details in the express entry it gives me a 381 overall score. when I checked what is the difference I found that from the tool they give me 98 points in the study section and according to the express entry it shows 90. can anyone please tell me how it is possible?

Difficult to know why. What are you counting for education?

I have two one-year programs from two different colleges. One from Niagara and one from Seneca. I just want to know I have to add these two program separate or both together
If you don’t have a degree then you count one year program. Two separate programs don’t equal a two year diploma so they are separate and you count one.
