Hi,

There are 3 mistakes I see in my evaluation report. I have sent WES Canada my bachelors & Postgraduate diploma to evaluate , in the month of November 2017 and received my report December 2017.


Mistake number one: I have done my bachelors of commerce with major being commerce but in my report WES changed the major/ Specialization to Business Administration


Mistake number Two: I have done Postgraduate Diploma with major being Finance & Marketing and it was changed to Business Management.

Mistake number three: The Status of my Postgraduate Diploma says that it is a Non-recognized Program, and the Canadian Equivalency is Two years of post-secondary study at a non-recognized institution.

My Institution is AICTE recognized , WES considers Postgraduate Diploma from an institution with AICTE approval as recognized Program,the reason I am sure about this because my friend with Postgraduate Diploma with AICTE recognition ,who got his credential evaluated from WES, has been considered as recognized Program & given Bachelor's degree (four years) Canadian Equivalent.

My institution is one of the best business schools in India whereas my friend`s is limited.

I have emailed them already but no reply yet. So, what else can I do to make them fix this asap.

Thank you.

Dear Moderator,
My PGDBM Institute has sent an email directly to WES because my report showed them as "non recognised"
Will WES accept their email or should i raise a query myself?

Thanks

WES - Wrong Assessment - Please Help

Hi,

I am facing a big problem here.... I will be 40 in May 2020 and lose another 5 points in 2 months!

IMM where i did my PGDBM is recognised by AICTE, however, my degree or mark sheets does not mention the words "recognised by AICTE" anywhere on them. Hence, my full time PGDBM is now from a non recognised institute. I had raised the query with WES and got the below reply.

We have reviewed your evaluation report and confirmed that it is correct. Your documents (degree certificate and/or mark sheets) do not clearly state that the specific program you completed is approved by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE). WES requires a clear statement on your degree certificate or mark sheets that the program you completed is approved by AICTE.

We would like to emphasize that World Education Services (WES) evaluations are advisory opinions and not binding upon any institution or organization.



I have contacted my institute and asked them for help as well...
Due to this my score is below 310 now
What can I expect as a worst case scenario.



any words of advice ?
