Is my diploma valid for further studies abroad and can I continue my course based on my current qualification in Ireland/Canada for a Bachelor's/Postgraduate?

Yes, your four-year bachelor's degree from India is generally recognized for further studies in both Canada and Ireland.

- In Canada, a four-year bachelor's is typically considered equivalent to a Canadian bachelor's. For postgraduate programs, you may need an Educational Credential Assessment (ECA) to confirm equivalence. This is subject to change.
- In Ireland, your degree is usually accepted as equivalent to an Irish Honours Bachelor Degree, supporting eligibility for postgraduate study.

Admission requirements can vary by university and program. For personalized guidance on your next steps, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
