For official transcripts from Institutions outside of the United States, an Official Report from a transcript evaluation service is required to attest to the United States equivalency of the credential achieved.  World Education Services is a suggested transcript evaluation service to use.  If you choose to have an evaluation done through a different credentialing service, the service used must be a member of at least one of the following organizations:

• National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES)
• Association of International Credentials Evaluators (AICE)
• American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (AACRAO)

To apply to World Education Services (WES) for transcript evaluation, go to http://www.wes.org/application/apply_now.asp and select the International Credential Advantage Package (ICAP) Course-by-Course evaluation.
