Is PGDM from India considered as Masters level education for FSW

[Devesh09]

Hi Can you please tell me what was the evaluation result?

Just tell the college to give a transcript to mention it is AICTE approved. Also college post the AicTE accreditations on college website. So down loans them for the 2 yrs relevant to you and also include them in the docket.

I got my PGDM assessed by WES as a Master's degree. It basically depends on the college/university from where you have received your PGDM.

Hi can you please let me know your college

Need Help!

I have the same concern as some of the others. I have done a 2 year full-time PGDM from a not so prominent college, though it is AICTE approved and it is mentioned on my consolidated mark sheet & degree certificate. I am in a situation now, where I see only CES evaluating my PGDM as masters & awarding full points for it, as IQAS has stopped taking applications for now due to high subscriptions.

Can someone please help me to know if there are any alternatives to get the maximum points here? CES is charging 210 CAD each for both degrees, 90 days of processing.

You can try ICAS but their processing time is too high. So Apply at CES.

Hi, anyone with experience of using ICAS/ICES/CES regarding equivalency of PGPM/PGPHRM diploma provided by Indian B-schools.. has anyone obtained Masters equivalency yet using these organizations?

If the diploma is 2 years, then IQAS can give Masters. Can, not confirmed.

In most cases, except for MBA from prestigious institutes like IIM and the other renowned institutes, WES will evaluate it as PGDM. IQAS considers MBA from other universities as MBA usually. However a PGDM will be considered as PGDM and not Masters by WES or IQAS. You will 192.168.100.1 get dual degree if both are sent for evaluation.

I have BSc degree (3 yrs) which was evaluated as Canadian Equivalent of Bachelor's Degree (Four Years).
My two year PGDM was evaluated as Canadian Equivalent of Master's Degree.

As I said Earlier (and I have confirmed it from WES), the criteria is AIU Equivalency and AICTE Approval.

Hello I have done my PGDM from Apeejay School of Management and did BBA from guru govind singh indhraprastha university.
Please let me know the equivalency in Canada if I add these two to WES.

Hi,
I have done PGDM for som Lalit Institute, it is AICTE approved but not AIU approved. The institute is not mentioned in the WES. I was reading the previous comment and it was mentioned I need to submit the letter from the college stating they are AICTE approved. after submitting the letter what are the chances of getting master degree points. also as my college is not AIU approved will it matter if I submit the letter of my college being AICTE approved.

Also, does anyone have any format of letter of college stating themselves as AICTE approved. In my degree certificate, it is clearly mentioned my college is AICTE approved, which I think is the case with all of us, won't this suffice.

PGDM is not a Masters Program. Its a Diploma. Its in the name of the course. WES will never consider it as Masters
