Transfer International Credit to ¸Ô±¾ÊÓÆµ

There can be huge value in getting your international transcript evaluated once you get accepted to ¸Ô±¾ÊÓÆµ.

Step 1: Select a credential evaluator.

Most credential evaluators charge between $150 - $300 for the service. ¸Ô±¾ÊÓÆµ will accept evaluations from any such as:


Step 2: Submit your transcripts.

Submit your original, sealed international transcripts and diploma directly to an evaluation company a minimum of 30 days before you arrive on campus in the United States. Check with the credential evaluator to determine exactly what documents to submit.

The evaluation process can often take 10-15 business days after all paperwork and payment has been submitted to the evaluation company. Submitting your paperwork before you arrive will help ensure you are placed into the correct courses to start the semester and avoid unnecessary coursework and tuition.


Step 3: Complete course-by-course evaluation.

In order to transfer in credits completed outside the United States ¸Ô±¾ÊÓÆµ requires a course-by-course evaluation of your international high school or post-secondary coursework. ¸Ô±¾ÊÓÆµ often also requires course syllabi for courses you wish to transfer in.
