Can somebody definitively tell me what order these are in... I know Masters is top but is a diploma 'worth' less than a bachelors degree?

I have my eye on an International Business Economics MSc course and the entry keeps going on about diplomas and degrees and it seems to value a degree higher

bottom: diploma
middle: bachelors degree
top: masters

Basically a Masters is another course (Normally a year or 2) where you achieve either achieve a distinction (Over 70% marks) or a Masters (40-69%)!
Then above that is a PhD...

Yes they will but it shouldnt put you off applying mate. They are looking for capable candidates and they think that means ones who have a degree / diploma but its not always the case.

ok.
But I remember my dad (he's an FCA or FCCA) telling me that it is a equivalent to an MSc.
BTW a little story regarding ACCA. It was also formerly known as CACA but in my country, Mauritius, being French speaking, accountants had to put CACA behind their name. In French, CACA means 'excrement' or 'shit' . So the accountants in MAuritius, had to make a request to change it to an alternative and not use it behind their name
But now it is officially ACCA

FCA and FCCA are 2 very different things though... also, it wouldnt surprise me if acca did = MSc
