Hi, course descriptor is actually the BSN curriculum of your school containing all the subjects with their corresponding course code, especially when you attended more than 1 school in college. Theoretical Breakdown of Hours, take note, is not the same as the RLE coz RLE pertains to lab skills while theoretical breakdown pertains to the major subjects taken grouped accordingly. It's like the credential verification form of the CGFNS application. Your school can prepare one for you. QNC is becoming more strict to credential assessment now but we just have to complyGood luck.

But the eligibility letter is the one you will present to the bridging program providers.

So for your case, I would say, you should expect an assessment letter but not yet the eligibility since you are still lacking some documents.

Guys please correct me if I'm wrong but this is how I understood it.
Got it right Aelith, It was stated in my assessment letter.

You can actually get the eligibility letter without the IELTS result since you cannot enroll in any university for the bridging program without the IELTS score. And then when you pass the bridge course, you still need to show to NBV the IELTS results.

Farah, i will be applying for the non-award student visa like aelith explained.

One can get the eligibility letter without IELTS??? I never thought it was possible... I've always thought that the eligibility will always be given when all requirements have been met.. That's good to know then.

Hi! chabeli, what pathway are you taking? Would it cost much? Have you understand clearly the pathway? Is there any website for that? Thanks, hope you won't mind my asking.

I've sent my RLE, do you think i should ask my school for the BSN curriculum even though i haven't received the assessment letter yet? umm, just to save time in case they would require me to pass that document.. what do you think guys? ^_^
