Hello all,

I have read multiple posts concerning WES, however, could not find an appropriate answer.
My educational qualifications are as follows -
3-year Bachelor's degree from the University of Mumbai (Recognised by WES)
1-year full-time Postgraduate Diploma from the University of Leicester, UK
2-year Master's from MGM Institute of Health Sciences, Mumbai
PhD (ongoing)

I found that on the WES Canada website - (For applicants submitting an Indian Master’s Degree or Postgraduate Diploma for evaluation, you must also provide your bachelor’s degree documents.WES cannot complete an evaluation without these documents.) And have read on this forum and heard from friends that Indian Masters alongwith 3-year Bachelor's degree is usually evaluated as 'Two or more certificates or degrees'. However, in my case I have a Postgraduate Diploma as well.

Can anyone comment on what are the chances that my Masters will be evaluated as Master's degree and not two or more certificates or degrees?
Should I try any alternatives like CES or IQAS?

Ideally, I should be getting ECA after my PhD degree, but we have had major setbacks due to the pandemic and I will take atleast a year more. I plan on adding a credential later once I have my doctoral degree in hand.

I know it is difficult to predict without a formal application. But any help in the matter will be highly appreciated.
Thank you.
