International Transcripts Evaluation
Do you need to evaluate your foreign transcripts?
Do you want to pursue more education?
- Consider what school you would like to attend.
- Once you know which college or university you want to apply to, contact those schools directly and ask what type of evaluation they need.
- You should also ask which evaluation organizations the school wants you to use.
Do you need it to apply for employment?
- For employment purposes, a general, less detailed evaluation may be all that is needed.
- If you know where you will be applying, it is always a good idea to ask what they need from you.
- These questions can usually be directed to the Human Resources department of the company or organization where you are applying.
Do you need an evaluation for US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)?
- It is important you find out if the agency and evaluation you are requesting satisfies the USCIS requirements.
Do you need an evaluation in order to apply for a professional license?
- For licensing services, there is no single credential evaluation. These are regulated by state licensing boards for each licensed occupation.
- Individuals who want a license need to contact the licensing board to avoid unnecessary costs and procedures. In their website it explains the licensing process for foreign-educated individuals.
- For specific careers and disciplines see your Counselor.
Foreign Credential Evaluation is how your academic and professional degrees earned in one country are compared to those earned in another country. The information evaluated of the individual education helps to be understood by the U.S educational system.
There are different types of evaluations available. Depending on the purpose of the evaluation, agencies will review your degree and convert them to the U.S. education system for purposes of studying or working in the United States.
Fee varies depending on details of the evaluation.
