Those who have done CA, Diploma etc can get the NARIC letter and claim their course as a UK equivalent professional or vocational degree.
Those are professional courses but not graduation courses.

Yours is both an academic and professional qualification.
But claim the points only for academic qualification.
In case of your engineering degree, mention it as a graduation course and claim the points for 'academics'.

Don't just take my comments for granted. Hear from others too.

Anyone with HSMP approval with Bachelor of Engineering Degree (India)?

Did you mention the same as ACADEMIC OR PROFESSIONAL qualification in the HSMP application form?

BCom Vocational from Osmania University

Post by rasinrdj » Mon Sep 03, 2007 8:30 pm

Hi friends,
I have done BCom (Vocational) from Anwar-Ul-Uloom college, I have received the degree from Osmania and on the degree it sates Bachelor of Commerce (Vocational). I know from these forums that BCom from osmania is considered UK Bachelors equivalent my doubt is BCom (Vocational) also considered equal? Somebody please help, I have prepared all the documents also got letter from Osmania regarding medium of instruction, just waiting for this slight clarification. I have done MBA so I am showing BCom only as a proof of english and not claiming any points from it.

Thanks & Regards
