General requirements

Apply online
Submit an official credential evaluation of all transcripts or mark sheets from all previously attended colleges and universities outside of the U.S.: This ensures that your degree is equivalent to a U.S. bachelor’s degree.
Graduate Studies would prefer evaluations from either World Education Services (WES), Educational Credential Evaluators (ECE) or Educational Perspectives (EP) although any approved NACES evaluation firm may be used for credential evaluations. It is extremely important that your transcript evaluation is a COURSE BY COURSE evaluation and NOT a document by document basis.
