Medium of Instruction - Tier 1 General - ILR

[E44302]

Hi Everyone,

I was just curious about the documents required for Medium of instruction (MOI). I have done my Bachelors and Masters from Osmania University - India. All my certificates are in English.

As per the rules:

an original letter or certificate from UK NARIC confirming the equivalent level of your degree, plus an official letter from your university with your name and degree confirming that your degree was taught in English

I obviously need the MOI certificate. My questions are:

1) Should I get the MOI for my Bachelors or Masters? Or is this irrelevant? Or should I get for both of them? As per this old thread, it says not to do it for Masters http://www.immigrationboards.com/uk-tie ... 14466.html. But Masters degree is the basis on which I have proved my English language requirements for my previous Tier 1 general extensions. Both my Masters and Bachelors are 3 year degrees.

2) Should I get the certificate from the College or the University? I studied in a college which was affiliated to the Osmania University.

I never needed this before as previously i used to submit the PBS form which recognized my qualification and was a part of the Home office database. But now since PBS forms are no longer available I will need to submit a MOI certificate.


Thanks in advance!

Further update to the above point: Obviously NARIC is only going to confirm the equivalent level of my degree. They will not check for any English language requirements. English language requirement is going to be satisfied by the MOI I get from the University.

So the question is: Should I get the MOI for the certificate (either bachelors or masters) which NARIC is going to evaluate for the equivalent degree level?
