Degree duration confusion

Post by abhi_011 » Mon Jun 21, 2010 1:25 pm

Hi All,

I have done MCA from GGSIPU (Guru Gobind Singh University) and the dates which i recieved from college are 01.08.2002 to 02.05.2005.

Well my question is as MCA is considered as 3 years course, however as per the dates provided by my college the duartion comes out to be 2 years and 10 months. In Appendix form i need to mention the exact start and end date of the (mm-dd-yyyy) my qualifying degree.

Where as in the self assesment form i have selected as 3 years and less than 4 years. If i do so then the information provided by me will be contradictory. Please advice.

Thanks,
Abhi

In Appendix form i need to mention the exact start and end date of the (mm-dd-yyyy) my qualifying degree. You need to provide approximate dates. When I applied for Tier-1, I provided approximatelty start-end dates of the degree. I never received any dates from College.

Right.. Give approximate dates.

But make sure those approximate dates fall within the course duration :lol: and end date of the course is before the final year exam date / month. For example my university gives the academic transcript which has the exam date / month as April 2010. You have to make sure the end date of the course duration falls on this month :idea:

Hope this helps.
