What is an International Credential Evaluation?

Georgia State requires an International Credential Evaluation for all international students who have attended colleges, universities, postsecondary programs or technical/vocational programs outside the U.S. This gives us an analysis of what you have already accomplished at the university level and lets us know what course credit can be transferred to you as a potential Georgia State student. Please visit naces.org to find approved evaluation companies that can provide an evaluation of your transcript. Transfer students must submit a course-by-course evaluation. (We need to review the grade conversion and credit hours for every class.) Postbaccalaureate students can submit a document-by-document evaluation. We have received evaluations from WES, ECE, Josef Silny, SpanTran, etc. in the past. You can learn more on our website, here, under the Foreign Credential Evaluation section. The International Credential Evaluation must be based on official documents and should list all courses taken abroad as well as the U.S. equivalency of your academic credit. Please have the NACES evaluator include your verified transcripts in your evaluation. We do not require third-party evaluation for international high school/secondary school credentials. If you did not attend any international university or postsecondary institution, please contact [email protected] so that we can review and update your checklist.
