Hi all, I got an ordinary pass on a BA Hons degree in England (i.e. I didn't get the Hons part but still have the BA) - does anyone know if this will be a problem when applying for my visa? Many thanks for any help

Just as long as finished the degree and have the document in hand. GPA doesn't matter either. Focus more on getting your documents in hand.

Theoretically, you shouldn't have any problems. Immigration will be more use to seeing honours degrees so you may have to do some explaining.

Outside of the UK there is virtually no-one who will care about your GPA or marks - they just care that you have the degree (parchment in hand).

Immigration NEVER cares about the marks. An employer may but not for an ESL teacher.
