Hello everyone,
I have been going through this since 2009, asking questions about the equivalence of HND In US, this and that, but unfortunately I couldn't find a reliable answer, till February 2012, and I thought of sharing it cos I believe other are out there like I was before.

First I would like to start by saying. YES!!!! NIGERIAN HND IS EQUIVALENT TO A US BACHELOR DEGREE. Am sure of what am saying because my HND transcripts (that's both my ND & HND) were evaluated as an American bachelors degree.

I would also like to tell you that working or getting admitted into American colleges is based on American qualifications and grades, so to work or get admission into American colleges, first try and get your certificate, diploma, degree or whatever you hold into American equivalence, and you can do that by sending your transcripts to one of the evaluation agencies, WES (world Education Services) http://www.wes.org/ is accepted by almost all American colleges but you can still find out more at http://www.naces.org/members.htm

For more guidelines on how to get to admission into American College with a HND a brother has helped out on his blog, and you can check it out here http://www.farooqkperogi.com/2009/12/hnd-and-american-universities.html and http://www.farooqkperogi.com/2009/03/looking-at-american-education-with_382.html

I would like to share my experience: I graduated with a HND in Electronics Engineering in 2009 from a Nigerian Federal Polytechnic, and sent my transcript to World Education Services WES on October 2011, I paid $202 for the service, the evaluation is supposed to be completed in 7days once all my documents are received, but we all know our 9ja na, considering the fact that the country was in crises it took me 3months to get my transcript to WES, again early JAN 2012 WES sent back another copy to FED POLY, for verification, and at the time our beloved nation is on strike due to subsidy matter and boko haram wahala, till 1st feb 2012, that's when WES got a feed back and my application became complete, on 8th Feb, 2012, my evaluation was complete.

I graduate in Nigeria with 3.14 out of 4.0 CGPA, which is of course our Upper Credit as we call it. But to my surprise from the evaluation my GPA was high to 3.56 out 4.0, that is based on the American System, moreover, in US they use a system of Credit Hours to determine your qualification, and in other to have a US bachelor degree, you must at-least have a minimum of 120 Credit Hours, but from my evaluation I had 135 Credit Hours, which is almost more-than that of the US. And as am typing this I have already applied to one of the top 15 engineering and technology university in the world for my masters program with a HND, and they have assured me that I would get it, after all am having a 3.56 GPA, and a good GRE score (GRE is an exams u sit for before applying for most graduate programs in US, its just like GMAT).
But still there are some few things you should be aware of, just because your transcripts are equivalent to a US degree, doesn't mean you will not take undergraduate courses, yes you will automatically be enrolled to a masters degree, as far as you meet the requirements, but there are some certain courses that you must take which of course are undergraduate courses, and the reason is because those courses are expected by all American graduates and in other to be one, you must go through it, such courses are like those related to the American policies, government, etc. (I haven't reached that stage, am just telling you based on what the school I applied for feed me too).

So to all those who keep asking, what is the equivalence of HND in US, its equivalent to a BACHELOR DEGREE but you really need to make good grades in your HND before you have something of worth, because I don't think there is any American University that would give you masters program with a minimum of 3.0GPA, U might get a provisional admission with a minimum of 2.5GPA (This is based on my reasoning, and what I have been going through, so just look out, cos I might be wrong)

If you need any proof regarding this, or guidelines don't hesitate to tell me or reply me, I promise i would help if I can, cos few years ago, I was once in the same point.

Cheers!

Good morning Boss. Please, how do I start with the evaluations? What's the first step to take? Please, I won't mind if you do me the favour of me taking your number so I can reach you and get info on several steps to take. Thanks Boss.

YorubaMuslims:
Taiwan is Chinese but not China as a country, Taiwan is different country on it own, it's not like Hong-Kong, China(People's Republic of China) as a country doesn't have a say in Taiwan(ROC) and can't control Taiwan(Republic Of China)

Nigerian government recently support China and sees Taiwan as part of China but that doesn't change Taiwanese' status

thanks G. I appreciate this piece of information.

shotuns:
TECHNO that doesnt even exist in China . Who brought it to Nigeria ?

Because it's joy in China doesn't mean it doesn't have quality

YorubaMuslims:
After Japan na Korea, followed by Singapore, Taiwan, China, Italy etc

now you're talking but Taiwan is part of China thought

I'm really not a game person but if I'll have to download, it'll be FIFA manager

It depends on the weight of the phone. It varies

This device is for deep pockets only, I'll just stick with my Spark series, atleast it give me what I want.

omoalajah:
you can buy a Tecno Pouvoir 2 Pro

that's a good one too.

Just get the latest TECNO Camon X

Why are you selling it so soon?

The best thing is to get a fast charger like the Infinix fast charger

It's good they didn't sell it off to FB... Good innovation.

Hasheem1hash:

Youngbbt:

Super VPN. I use it on my TECNO Spark2 and it's very good

Japan is just too way ahead of the world when it comes to technology, followed by China, no wonder they brought in TECNO to the Nigerian market.


Making Ftc like kilode

Hasheem1hash:
bro, I'm not disputing the fact that tecno camera are awesome, but can u compare iPhone 8mega pixel and tecno 8megapixel?

Brotherly, I wasn't arguing though but different strokes for different folks.

Wilstino:
Yes it is!! I travelled with my tecno phone to the UK, I could make calls with the UK sim card but couldnt set up mobile data. i.e there was no setting for the phone as with other phone brands.

I flew to the US afterwards and my techno phone didnt work with their network. It didnt detect network signal all thru my stay in the US.

meaning Tecno devices can work in Europe

10GB ram This one na computer, Alienware

Bro, I'm not understanding what your saying o but TECNO's camera is very bright, if you doubt me try the Camon series

omoalajah:
Tecno is the king of low budget phones

Hands down!! Nobody fit drag this one.

The TECNO F3 seem to interest me more

socialmediaman:
Unfortunately I don’t have information about the requirements in Canada. Maybe someone else does. Some google and research would also help

Good afternoon Chief. Please, what's the first step I need to take to carry out this evaluation and do I need to send my waec result as well? Cos on the Wes website I saw waec as the requirement also to be evaluated
