FAQs

If you went to high school and/or university abroad or if you already have job experience from another country and you wish to study or work in the United States, your diplomas, transcripts, examination results and/or job evaluation reports need to be examined and evaluated. This will allow your future school, your potential employer or your immigration attorney to determine the corresponding educational or professional level here in the United States.

If your documents are in a different language, they will need to be translated first before they can be evaluated. But don’t worry! This is much easier than it seems. We can provide translation services in-house through our sister company Translingua. So, you don’t need to go anywhere else – we take care of everything for you. Please note that the translations will serve as a basis for the evaluation of your documents. However, if the school where you are applying, your potential employer or your immigration lawyer requested a certified translation, we can produce as many certified and notarized copies as you need to submit.

Do not panic. If you do not have the original documents, we can accept certified and/or notarized copies. You can also request new originals to be sent to us directly via mail by your former high school, university, examination board or employer abroad.

Should you choose to complete your application in person, please call and make an appointment as our staff availability varies from day to day.
