Academic Evaluation Service
It’s well known that your past education is an indicator of your future earning power, but what happens if you were educated overseas and then came to the US – do your prior studies lose their value altogether? They certainly don’t have to!
Whether it’s a high school diploma or a PhD, you can easily receive credit for your prior studies in order to apply for that promotion or new job, or for continuing education or visa application purposes. To do so, you will need to have those prior studies evaluated and certified to the equivalent US or Canadian studies. This process is an academic evaluation service. We’ve made this evaluation process fast and easy – just email us your academic documents for your competitive quote, pay securely online, and receive your certified academic evaluation service the next day!

Our Academic Evaluation Services
We offer two main types of transcript evaluations to meet your specific needs:
Course by Course (CBC) Evaluation
For any type of continuing education you will almost always require a Standard Course by Course (“CBC”) evaluation. A CBC evaluation assesses your graduation certificates plus each course of study you completed, how long you studied each course for, and what grade you achieved in that course. This enables the evaluation agency to issue a complete set of equivalent courses, grades and credits within the US education system, along with a certification of the equivalent degree or diploma. CBC evaluations are usually the required evaluation type for continuing education purposes.

General Evaluation
Also known as a ‘document by document’ evaluation, a General evaluation is a less extensive analysis than a CBC as it evaluates your graduation certificate only. The evaluating agency will then issue a statement of equivalency as to that degree in the target country. Since there are no courses assessed, the General equivalency evaluation necessarily excludes any course information, GPA or credit calculations.

The Transcript Evaluation Process:
There are two methods of transcript evaluation, the main difference being how the transcripts are provided to the evaluating agency. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages as noted below.
School-to-Agency Transcripts
For this method, you will complete an application form and pay the evaluation agency their fees. Once paid, your order is in-process and you will then request that your prior school send your transcripts directly from that school to the evaluation agency. From there, the agency will follow their normal evaluation process.
Advantages: Document authentication
Client-to-Agency Transcripts:
For this method, the client emails a picture or scan of their transcripts to the evaluating agency, which reviews the documents and emails a quote back within a few minutes. An invoice is generated which is usually paid online. From there, the agency will follow their normal evaluation process.
Advantages: Speed; convenience; no application forms; significantly lower cost; guaranteed acceptance
Other Considerations
Guaranteed Acceptance
It is good to make sure the evaluation agency you use offers 100% guaranteed acceptance for all schools, colleges, universities or employers. There should be absolutely no risk to you that their transcript evaluation work will not be accepted. If in any doubt, simply check with the intended recipient prior to ordering from any agency.
Complete Documentation
Always provide all your transcripts and graduation certificate to the evaluation agency at the same time. If the agency is required to include transcripts at a later date, they will often charge additional fees (although usually not the entire fee is charged for a modification).
