Foreign Transcript Evaluation
Information

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 transcripts evaluated and your Dean approves an “Equivalency Verification” (form P-38), evaluation of foreign transcripts may not be necessary.  However, non-evaluated foreign transcripts cannot be used for salary class placement. 

If you want additional units beyond your degree to be used for class salary placement, your evaluation will need to include the number of units earned, per course and the level of the course taken (i.e. upper division, graduate, lower division, undergraduate, etc.) 

Below is a list of private organizations who charge a fee for their services.  These agencies have been approved to evaluate foreign transcripts. 

Please call our HR Specialist at 916-568-3179 for additional information.
