Evaluation service - How do I resolve this issue?

I am completely stressed and need help.


I intend to apply for immigration to Canada under the Express Entry system . However, a wrong assessment of my qualifications by WES can completely ruin my future.

I have more than 9+ years of post-qualification experience in high-profile corporates, at Higher Management position.

My qualifications (from India) are from a leading University:
Bachelors in Science (Hotel Management & Tourism) : 3 years, full-time

The Canadian equivalency assessment provided on my Bachelor's Degree Certificate was reported as a "Degree from a Non-Recognized Institution" by WES.


I disagreed with this assessment and had earlier written a mail to World Education Services providing them with the resources to re-evaluate my initial assessment. In response to that I have received the following letter from World Education Services simply claiming that in their opinion my institution (Bachelor's in Science - Hotel Management & Tourism) does not have a Canadian Equivalency of a Degree from a recognized institution.
To provide you with more information, I have graduated from an institution in India which was registered under the University Grants Commission of India with a "deemed university" status and the degree awarded by the university in 2008 was recognized & approved by University Grants Commission of India.

My institution was registered , approved and affiliated as a deemed university under the University Grants Commission of India
at the time when I enrolled in the university in 2005 & when my degree certificate was awarded in 2008. However, It has different body governing it now.
I have no other resource available to address this dispute on my credential evaluation and all my efforts (emails/web links etc. to confirm the authenticity of my credentials with World Education Services,Toronto have been overlooked by their evaluation methodology.

I am really looking forward to finding some help in resolving this dispute of my credential assessment and have made an attempt to communicate this matter to WES. I am sharing web links from the regulatory authorities in my country to verify my claim.




Please find the web link below which shows that my institution is still listed under The University Grant Commission of India.

Also sharing the link from University Grant Commission which does not have the name of my Institution as fake.

I am very much confident that my University is a recognized one.


I am really frustrated and stuck,please guide me how could I sort this situation and get the points that I actually deserve.
