International degree equivalencies
Qualifications from a number of educational systems around the world are listed below. Normally, they are recognised as equivalent to a pilipili漫画 four-year bachelor's degree if they have been awarded from an institution that is recognised by the Faculty of Graduate Studies. The academic standings indicated are normally accepted as equivalent to a pilipili漫画 B grade average.听Please be advised that degree equivalences are subject to change on a continuing basis.
Please be advised that when a college is affiliated to a university the applicant must submit official transcripts and degree certificate from the university and not the affiliated college. The reason for this is because the university is recognized not the college. If a college is autonomous to a university we will accept the transcripts but they must be accompanied with a degree certificate from the university.
