Subject: Define "1 or 2 yr Diploma" & 2yr Bachelor Degree
  Hi,

Im finding it rather difficult to get a firm answer to my specific issue.

When it says "2yr bachelor degree" in the skilled worker assesment what exactly does this mean? I completed 2 yrs of a BA History but dropped out after the 2nd year and consequently have no qualification in that subject. Does 2yr Bachelor degree mean completed 2 yrs (showing ability to study at that level) or does it mean a foundation degree e.g. HND?

Secondly, does a 2yr part time diploma count as 1yr diploma on the assesment? Also, what level of study does a diploma count as? I am thinking of taking an HNC in multimedia design here in the UK. It is part time for 2 years.

As my girlfriend who works for student services pointed out - you cant really define education or qualifiactions in terms of years can you?

So many questions I know! Everyones circumstances are obviously different and I have not found any info from which I can gauge a fair answer to my issue.

Thanks in advance.

Its not 2 year bachelor degree. It means a bacheler degree obtained as a result of minimum 2 years of full time study at a recognised university.

In your cae, u dont have a bachelor degree and you "ll not recieve points for this.

CIC defines education in terms of years of studies, dont bother whether its right 2 do so or not.
