Thanks for your advice. I had seen your other thread and checked out AEI too, however what they do is assess foreign education against the standards of australian education, so there's no guide for Oz degrees. My Oz degree is not applicable for another 5 points as total duration was less than 2 years. Will probably go ahead to include my degree in my EOI, proceed with the state sponsorship and pray!!

Hi Kubby Congrats on getting your visa and thanks for posting this question as it is one on my mind too. Hope to get your point of view about my situation. I recently received a positive skills assessment from Vetassess, and likewise they did not take my degree into consideration. My degree was issued by RMIT University in Australia, however as I had exemptions for many subjects due to an affiliation with the school issuing my diploma, the total length of study was only 2 semesters. I am concerned too as to whether I should include this degree as part of my claim in my EOI. I will be able to provide a copy of my degree and transcripts as supporting evidence. What's your take? Should I just go ahead and include my degree? I am about 5 months shy of my 33rd birthday, and hope not to lose another 5 points for the change in age should the application be rejected. Btw, will be applying for a 190 visa with WA. Appreciative of any advise you (or anyone else) could offer, Kip
