    Re: Equivalency

    Ah... I did a 4 year course so that'll be the difference!

    Guess your best bet is either the exams (just like a few more uni exams) or go via NZ and get registration that way.

    I know this was post started earlier in the year . . . but that is great news regarding the equivalency.
    I am about to apply for this and I understand that you can be granted equivalence if you have a 4 year BSc or a 2 year MSc.
    i completed and MSc at Southampton 2 years ago and am hoping to go to oz next year.

    I have just emailed the APC with a few queries regarding the evidence documents they require. My uni has supplied these but I believe I need to submit 2 copies.

    Any input from you or anyone else who has manged this successfully would be great.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Mel,
    I wasn't aware that you would be able to get it with a 2 year MSc course so that's good if you can. Yes, as far as i can remember you have to send 2 copies of everything and get them all signed by a JP. They ask for quite a lot of detail so took me a long time to get everything all together. Although, i qualified about 9 years ago and also was already in oz which made getting things i needed even more difficult!
    If you have any further questions, you can email me on [email protected] as probably easier as i can access email on my phone.

    good luck!
