Hey,

So I have a bit of a weird educational background in that I did 2 years of college, transferred to university, completed/received a BA (3 year general) and then did one extra year for a BSW (Bachelor of social work, which I havent received yet).

Ive got my visa number but when I do the interview at the consulate, the list of questions I've been given is asking for years studied at the school and so on. Am I going to have problems with the fact that I technically only did 2 years of university study in order to get my 3 year degree due to transfer credits?

No.

Lots of students start in regional colleges and transfer to the major universities with transfer credits. You still met the universities residence requirement of 60 credit hours at that uni to quality for your degree.

So as long as it says Bachelor of ___________ from a recognized Canadian university you are fine.
