Hi guys,

I'm just in the process of sending over my documents to WES to have them verify my degree.

I was just wondering from your experience if my degree will be assessed as equivalent to a 2 or 3 year post-secondary study.

I started my study in January 2009 At the University of Auckland for a Bachelor of Technology.
Then later that same year I switched to a Bachelor of Science and that was what I graduated with.

In my transcript it says "eligible to graduate" in December 2011 ........and "Degree Awarded " in May 2012.

Will they only count the 2009-2011 part , thus only 2 years ? ....BSc's at Auckland are 3 years and that's the standard.

Also in the transcript, it says under BTech - "discontinued" ...because I switched the a BSc ...will that be a problem at all ?

So my transcripts are currently en-route to Toronto straight from the University ...and next week I'll mail a copy of my grad certificate and grad letter myself from Calgary to Toronto too.

I have same sort of situation. I completed level 5 Diploma in Hospitality in one year. Which takes at least 2 years of full time studies at WELTEC. I am expecting my WES evaluation to be completed this week. I may be able to update you how WES will consider my case.

I got cross credit in Diploma because of my previous education. But I have got it mentioned in the WES form by Head of department from my Institute so WES consider my Diploma as two year Duration. I will update you. keep in touch. You can add me on whatsup 0064212044457

Don't have whatsapp so you'll have to give your update here :)
 
Here is my update. Just got an email of evaluation completed today. They only mentioned one year equivalent to Canadian standards in my report as I completed the 2 years diploma in one year. WES is shitttt.. seriosuly!! Most likely you will get degree equivalent to 2 years unless you send them the 1st year (Bachelors of technology) transcript as well. Good luck mate!
 
Fastfood- I also have a Level 5 diploma which I need to get assessed. Could you please tell me what documentation you and your institute provided WES? Does your transcript have enrolment dates (from-to) and marks per subject? My transcript only has an award date, subjects and credits per subject.
