Hope someone or senior staff can help me out here.

I am from UTeM, recently graduated with a cgpa of 3.65 and just secured a job with an overseas company.

However in UTeM, we do not practice degree classification, the course I am taking is Manufacturing Engineering with Honors. When I asked my PA, he kept telling me no classification, but I have an honors.

The problem is that my company is a MNC that uses degree classification in order to determine the salary package. They informed me that since I do not have classification, the package will be based on that of a General Degree (eg ones awarded to someone who graduates with cgpa below 2.00).

I have tried to write to my dean and head of department in order to get a letter stating that my CGPA is equivalent to Second Upper with respect to other public universities in Malaysia, but they insisted that they cannot do so because UTeM does not practice classification. I enquired what about JPA, do they have a standard which I can follow, but I didn't hear from them until now.

Basically I want to know, in this case what can be done? I just need an official letter stating that my CGPA is equivalent to XXX class to avoid getting a general degree salary package.

Thanks for your help!
