Bachelor Degree

Post by sinuthom » Tue Mar 10, 2009 10:09 pm

My BSc degree (from MG University, Kottayam) is been assessed as equivalent to British Bachelor (Ordinary) Degree by NARIC. The point calculator shows 30 points for this course. However, some where in this forum I saw a posting which says that their application got rejected since the qualification is Bachelor (Ordinary) degree. Any idea whether I am eligible to apply with this qualification?

Go by what the points calculator says. If you get 30 points for the course and institution, you are good to go.

Would be good to apply quickly before the changes to the Tier 1 take effect.

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... iew=Binary
Amendments to Tier 1 of the Points Based System
7.14 Tier 1 of the Points Based System caters for highly skilled migrants and was fully launched on 30 June 2008. This Statement of Changes makes a number of amendments to it, of which the key ones are:
Applicants under the Tier 1 (Post-Study Work) route will receive no points for post graduate certificates and diplomas other than UK Postgraduate Certificates of Education.
Migrants applying for their first period of leave under Tier 1 (General) will receive no points for Bachelors degrees or for previous earnings of less than £20,000. This change will not affect migrants who already have leave under Tier 1 and are seeking an extension of that leave.
