Hi all, apologies for the previous long post, the thread seems to be eating the entry. Anyways, here's something to think about
We have prior evidence that a Livello 1 has been evaluated as a US Master's degree:
1. In an older thread, it shows WES evaluating the 1 Livello Italian Master's Degree as equivalent to a US Master's degree.
https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...ne-Courses
2. A Canadian University's website confirms they consider a 1 Livello or 2 Livello (Specialization Master's) as well as the full Magistrale, all as equivalent to a Canadian Masters.
https://www.sgs.utoronto.ca/future-stude...valencies/
If one has 60 ECTS from a Postgraduate Diploma or a Level 7 Postgraduate Diploma from any of the following: Pearson BTEC/OTHM/ATHE/LRN/NCC Education/Qualfi, these 60 ECTS enable advanced entry into a UK MBA to complete the remaining 60 ECTS.
Does a 1 Livello work in this way? Who knows, some AI sources say that a 1 Livello is equivalent to a UK Postgraduate Diploma.
If you want a guaranteed route to a full UK MBA, there's always the Level 7 Postgraduate Diploma that I listed above, as it guarantees advanced entry to select UK MBA programmes and it is super affordable.
For those who are less familiar, postgraduate (UK) = Graduate School level (US)
