Do extended level 6 diploma's from the UK get evaluated as Bachelor degrees in the US - Pinko64 - 11-01-2023
Do Extended Level 6 diploma's (level 4+5+6) from British business schools generally get evaluated as equivalent to a Bachelors degree by NACES members (IEE for example)?
I have been looking for answers but those seem pretty conflicting.

I think it largely depends on the school, etc. Part of the problem is that accreditation isn't as clear-cut in the UK as it is in the US. IMO, it's a lot easier to buy a diploma from a school that claims to be accredited, but isn't, than it is in the US. Not that there are no diploma mills or scams in the US, but it does seem to be easier to quickly verify American schools compared to UK ones.
If you get a degree or diploma from the real Oxford, it's obviously legit. But there are a ton of other schools out there that are less obvious. And that's why you're going to get conflicting answers from the Google machine about equivalent evaluations.
Verify the school with https://www.enic-naric.net/page-United-Kingdom and you should be fine.

Exactly, you may want to review a post I had a couple of days ago, here: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-Open-University-of-Taras-Shevchenko-National-University-of-Kyiv?pid=406923#pid406923 - In addition to that, I've written a few posts/threads in regards to the UK top-up options, you may want to take a read and search, also review the WIKI.
Just curious, you changed your alias/username, you may want to revisit your previous thread as well and see if that is the route you want to take, I would go a different route if you can, like the US RA or UK top-up option: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-Accelerate-Newlane-degree-with-unaccredited-degree?pid=406891#pid406891

I've also mailed Newlane, asking about their evaluation requirements.
