I have 3 yr bachelors and 1 yr Masterrs degree from a university in Bangladesh.

WES summary evaluation is : Bachelors(3yrs) and Bachelors(4yrs).

Can I claim points for 2 or more degrees? Since one of my degrees is of 3 years? I desperately want to claim it. But I am not sure....

Please can you help me decide if I can choose two or more degrees or am I only a bachelor?


Thanks

Thanks. Canadaindia for quick reply. But my fear is, if it's not the correct one then my application may get refused. Could you please explain how You deem I am eligible for two or more degrees? How do I know that they don't consider it as only a Bachelor? Yet I desperately want to believe I can choose two or more degree.


Experienced people here please help me out!

Yes, it just means your equivalence in Canadian education is 2 bachelor's degrees, the master's degree in Bangladesh would not be recognized in Canada.
Since one of your degrees is definitely at least 3 years, then you can choose "two or more..."

The requirement to choose is you should have two post secondary degree with one of them being at least 3 years, and in your case you evaluation says u have two bachelors degree and complies perfectly with what i mentioned in my last response.
Even i have nearly the same case i have one 4 year bachelors and one 2 year diploma and i choose the same. good luck

Hi canadaindia44
I have a Bachelors(4yrs) & Masters(3yrs) from India which is equally acclaimed as the same in Canada by WES (by their Degree Equivalency Tool). So should i send both of my degrees for evaluation or just my Masters. Also do i have to submit my 10th/12th transcripts to them as well or will the highest degree or both degrees(if required) suffice (since it increase the cost)?
Also which one give more points a "Master's" or "two post secondary degree with one of them being at least 3 years" and if later provides more points should i select this in my application for EE.

Your guidance well appreciated.
Thanks J
