Sikkim Manipal University — Smu not recognized by wes - evaluation organisation

Dear Stakeholder, Sikkim Manipal University is not recognized by World Education Services (WES). WES is a non-profit organization that provides research about international education and trends and offers expert credential evaluation services. WES is recognized and trusted by America and Canada Govt. So, we also trust them. Moreover, WES has now STOPPED taking evaluation request from students who done their Degrees from your Sikkim Manipal Univerity (Regular and Distance mode) and So, WES clearly mentioned about this in their website. Please find the attachment. I have just recently enrolled in an MBA programme with SMU-DE and I am now so worried as I am planning to move to Canada after that. And if situation remains the same I loose my precious two years which will be come worthless and useless. Also, my hard earned money will become waste because of this. IT IS OKAY, that you (SMU) have clearly mentioned in your website that you will stamp and sign the transcripts/xerox copy and will Dispatch it directly to WES by charging some money from us, BUT this DO NOT RESOLVE our problem, because WES either will reject the application and will not refund our money OR they will evaluate SMU Degrees as NON-RECOGNIZED which is again worthless and useless to us (student like me). Please find the attachment. I request you, Please take this with very high priority and please you (SMU) directly discuss with WES and resolve this issue as soon as possible as it is affecting student's career. Note* Apart from Sikkim Manipal University, WES has recognized all the UGC approved Universities. SMU is UGC-DEC approved but don't know why you guys have disputes with WES. Looking forward for your positive reply and hope you will take necessary actions ASAP. Thanks in advance Best Regards SMU-DE Student

I am facing the same issue, WES is not accepting SMUDE degree when contacted to SMUDE via their facebook page and in response to it they have the same old reply "We have written to WES but they have not replied us yet", now the question arises, why is WES ignoring your queries? there must be some solid reason behind that.

Dear SMUDE,

Get the issue resolved ASAP, else we all students will come together and raise our voice against you.

So, I'm surprised that some o[censored]s are surprised that SMU is not recognized by WES.

Every and any institutions not recognized by WES is solely based on their extensive research and evaluation on the quality and standard of education provided by these said institutions/universities. No country govt. have a say in their decision as its non political. WES has its own set of rules and standards, and surpass most that are set by most govts. In fact, most govts. support the mission, vision, objectives and actions of WES.

If WES recognized all UGC approved universities but SMU, that itself is self explanatory!

In other words, it's crystal clear that SMU is The Worst educational set-up/institutions amongst all the UGC recognized universities, period! Govt. interference is not going to do good in regards to WES decison about SMU. It might be easier to petition to the HRD to BLACKLIST/STOP SMU-DE than to revoke WES decision. In any case, why would WES deviate from their own globally respected standards of evaluations (education) just to recognized this so call SMU-DE!!!

P.S. I am one of the victims of this SMU-DE. Lesson learnt but hard way :(
