Accreditation of foreign credentials in the US

Do you have a High School Diploma or a higher degree from a foreign country?

If so, these agencies can help convert your foreign transcript to one that is a US equivalent with the US grading scale.

If interested to know more, refer to the following websites:

Some of these agencies require the institution where the original diploma/degree was conferred to send a sealed copy of the official transcripts directly to them.

Others would allow the candidate to send the original transcripts for evaluation.

Some of the agencies listed also accept scanned and emailed copies of the original transcripts.

Each agency has its own way of accrediting the foreign credentials. The agencies listed in the two websites are the only ones I would recommend using for foreign transcript evaluation.
