Hi all,

I have a foreign bachelor's degree which has been assessed and a Canadian post-secondary diploma.

In my express entry profile, I have two rows for these and in each row I have selected "Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees. One must be for a program of three or more years." for both of my qualifications under level of education column. Is it correct?

There is a ? icon above the drop down menu and it had following information:

"To get the correct number of points, make sure you choose the answer that best reflects your case. For example:
If you have TWO Bachelor’s degrees, or one Bachelor’s AND a two year college diploma, choose - "Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees. One must be for a program of three or more years."


Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hi there,

Thanks for the quick response. But why to select "Two or more certificates, diplomas, or degrees. One must be for a program of three or more years" for the diploma?

Please refer this. As far as I understand, apart from your Bachelor's degree, the other must be Post Bachelor's / Post Graduate

and NOT Post secondary. So, I think you should stick to One Degree

Hope this helps :)
