Hi Saud,

In USA and Canada and some other countries, a bachelors program is a four-year program and thus the 3-year Indian bachelor's program is not considered enough for an MS degree. Some universities require the candidates to complete a few extra credits to be considered at par with the US bachelors program.

However, WES (a non-profit organization) evaluates the different programs and considers the 3-year programs equivalent to a US bachelors program when the aspirant has:

• Earned the degree with Division I
• The institution is recognised by Indian NAAC with a Grade of A or above

A number of US universities do consider the Indian bachelor's degrees for Masters programs. I suggest you that send in your transcripts to the university officials before you decide to apply.

For more information, you can visit the World Education Services Website.

Do revert if you require more information.

All the best for your future!
