Post graduation diploma is a degree whereas CFP is a certification. A degree holds better value. CFP won't term you as a post-graduation. Choose wisely.

CFP could be certified Financial Planner OR Chartered Financial Analyst, which one are you referring too.
Nevertheless, both the CFP have good scope & have separate career opportunities. Chartered Financial Analyst (USA) is the difficult of the two & will give you a better career growth.
If you are able to complete both the courses together, you will get a preferences over other students at your campus placement time.
Salary is a function of multiple factors so don't worry on it. Concentrate on your studies. Do well and all else will fall into place.

Hi Roni,
