Foreign Transcripts
Individuals who have completed college or university course work at an institution in a country other than the United States must obtain a complete evaluation of foreign transcripts, degrees and other relevant documents. A foreign transcript evaluation is required any time foreign course work is used to meet minimum qualifications and/or salary placement, even if the foreign transcript has previously been accepted by a different college or university in the United States.
If you do not choose to have your foreign transcript evaluated, you must complete an “Equivalency Review Request” form with your application for review.
The following institutions provide foreign transcript evaluation services and charge a fee. College of the Desert does not promote or approve any of these agencies. This is provided only as a possible source.
