Diploma Evaluation
National
Capital Legal Services in collaboration with credential evaluation
services provide professional assistance in interpreting the
equivalency of foreign education of persons educated outside
the United States of America in terms of education at accredited
institutions in the United States.
We
only collaborate with credential evaluation services, that have
a team of professional foreign credential evaluators, who have
been active in the field of international education for many
years and who prepare credential evaluations after careful research
and scrutiny of all available research material, courses completed,
examinations passed, degrees and diplomas awarded, etc.
Typically,
a foreign credential evaluation is required for H1-B, I-140,
TN (and other work-related) visas, university admission and
employment. Together with credential evaluation services we
provide evaluations for colleges and universities, employers,
immigration attorneys and the US Immigration Service which show
the equivalency of foreign education credentials to US education.
Our
credential evaluation services evaluate academic credentials
for students who have attended academic institutions outside
the United States of America.
The
following types of evaluation reports are available:
DIPLOMA
AND DOCUMENT EVALUATION REPORTS
Diploma
and document evaluations determine the applicant's level of
education, duration of the course completed and the specialization
of the applicant. Document evaluations are used for education,
when transferred credits and courses taken are not relevant,
employment and immigration.
COURSE-BY-COURSE
EVALUATION REPORTS
Course-by-Course
evaluations provide the same information as a document evaluation
report, but also list the courses the applicant has taken, the
grades received and the credit equivalence earned in the United
States. Course-by-Course evaluations are used for continuation
of education, including high school admission, college/university
admission, employment and immigration.
EDUCATION
AND WORK EXPERIENCE EVALUATION
This report provides a document report for the years of education
and verified work experience. Education and work experience
or work only evaluations follow the immigration rules to use
work experience to add to incomplete university work, or replace
university work, or add to a bachelors degree to result in a
higher degree. These reports are used for employment, immigration,
and in special cases for continuation of education.
