Some 3 year Indian Degrees to be recognized by WES

World Education Services, the leader in international education credential evaluation for American and Canadian universities, has revised its assessment of India's three-year undergraduate degrees.

This is great news for the thousands of Indian LearnHubbers who aspire to do a graduate degree in the U.S.!

Indian students who have earned a Bachelor's degree, such as B.Sc. or B.Com, with Division I or II from universities accredited by National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) with a grade of "A" or higher, may now equate to a U.S. Bachelor's degree.

Traditionally, students in India needed to complete sixteen years of academic work to be eligible for admission to graduate programs in the United States.

Dr. Rahul Choudaha, Associate Director says this initiative will, "help students gain full credit for their Indian education and save them an extra year of coursework, which some students undertake to meet the requirement for admission to the U.S. universities."

Prominent American universities are prepared to consider International applications for graduate admission from candidates who hold three-year degrees.

Students interested in international education are encouraged to join WES's International Admissions community to share their experiences and ask queries on a range of topics related to international admissions including credential evaluation, admissions process, immigration, and standardized testing.

    Thank you albercht. This is an extremely important information especially saving anyone who is applying a year or more! Most of all, a lot of universities off late do ask for a credential evaluation, so getting it means to become competitive as compared to the rest of the population applying for the same course, because, someone screening the application might understand GPA better than Indian %s. Good Luck!!

    Hi Gagandeep,

    It is not always possible to convert your total academic scores from your B.Sc. or academic percentage into a GPA number and not always necessary either. Your application and grades will be evaluated on it’s own merit.

    Dear asmitalal,

    As mentioned in the above lesson if you earned your degree from a college or an university that’s ranked ‘A’ or above ‘A’ by NAAC most of the american universities will consider your degree. I encourage you to go through the list of these universities abroad using our School Finder Tool

    Hope this helps…
