Adding my name to the list of people fighting them over the removal of the AI concentration. I haven’t yet come to any agreement with upgrad over their bait and switch.

Hi,
I suggest contacting the provost about this issue. If you would like to connect, we might come up with a good email to write the Provost. The most we voice our concerns to the university, the better as they can pressure UpGrad to come to a good solution.
In my case, I'm asking for a discount on the fees, as I didn't get the Tech and AI, which is false presentation.
N!

Try going up the chain for both Edgewood and Upgrad! You can try escalating this, but it's all up in the air what they can do and can't do...

Thank you VirtualWorkings and BJCheung, I will see what contacts I can find for someone higher on the chain but yeah it seems like no matter how much they are in the wrong, it could still end up "Tough luck"

Hello everyone! I just started the DBA at Edgewood via UpGrad. I know the first class just graduated. I was wondering if anyone here who is from Canada and will be applying for WES verification could please keep us updated? Very anxious to see if the degree gets WES approval in Canada! ? Thank you!

Where are you in Canada? Which province? There are 6 different foreign credential evaluation agencies (5 English ones outside Quebec, 1 French in Quebec), why must it be WES? Do you have a preference for them?

At this point, I don't think anyone from Canada would need an evaluation for their DBA, it's a Business degree that's accredited. Unless you're using that for immigration purposes, I would skip the FCE and if you require this for educational or professional reasons, you can see if it really is required before submitting an evaluation. Some FCE's are better than others, WES is not the recommended one unless it's requested to be the one used...
