recommendation for U.S. ranges of equivalencies for each credential obtained.

completion of Part D on the Application is required in order to have
the General Report done. General Report can be done alone for employment or
Immigration purposes. |

| Course-by-Course Analysis |
A report listing all the courses
studied, in chronological order, with U.S. equivalency of credit and grade for each course.

| Comprehensive Evaluation Report |
This report consists of both
course-by-course and general reports. It is recommended for
professional licensing and graduate admission purposes. This full
report is also normally done for individuals whose degree(s) is
considered equivalent to a U.S. Bachelor's degree or higher. The fee
for this evaluation will be the total of the fees for both types of
reports. |

Notes:
- Multiple programs: Evaluation fee listed on the Fee Schedule
is for each program/study to be evaluated. Additional program to be
evaluated, i.e. second Bachelor, Master, Certificate, Diploma, will
incur additional cost (see
Fee Schedule).
- Postage and handling fees: Required for all evaluation requests, to return
original documents with evaluation report to applicant. Refer to
Fee Schedule for secured mailing options
and appropriate fee.
- Grade point average (GPA): GPA is not routinely done unless
specifically requested. The course-by-course evaluation must be
completed in order to have the GPA, as GPA is calculated from the U.S.
equivalency of credits and grades on the course-by-course analysis. A
nominal fee of $15, per program, is to be added to the total evaluation fee for this
calculation.
- Reconstruction work: In few cases, when the school's
transcript does not indicate the hours of study or the credits earned
for each subject, the school syllabus is required. If a syllabus is not
available, reconstruction work is needed in order to create a
course-by-course evaluation. The Reconstruction by Synthesis form must be
completed by the applicant for information on the hours of study for
each subject on the transcript. The Reconstruction fee is to be
determined depending on the complexity of each case.
- Evaluation time: The evaluation process normally takes two to
four weeks, depending on the completeness of information submitted, the
type of the evaluation report, and the complexity of the documents. All
evaluation requests are processed on a first-come first-served basis.
- Rush service: IESCAREE offers rush services of one, two and
five-working days. Rush service starts when all required information,
documents and fees are received at IESCAREE. Rush service requests are
accepted on a case-by-case basis. One-day Rush service needs prior approval.
Please contact the Center by email or phone. Money order is required for
Rush services.
- Additional evaluation set: At the time of initial
application, additional reports may be requested at $25 per report. All
evaluation files are kept active for three years from the date the
evaluation is requested. The expiration date is indicated on the cover
letter attached to the copy of the evaluation report sent to the
applicant. Within this period, additional official evaluation set may be
requested for different institutions and same purpose, for a nominal fee
of $30 per set, including postage and handling fees. If the revision of
the evaluation report is needed for a different purpose, i.e. different
evaluation format, a $20 revision fee will be charged. Expired files
will be purged and destroyed, applicant will need to reapply if an
evaluation report is still needed. Discounted fee will be considered for
all reapplied applicants.
- Payment: Full payment must be made together with the
application and in US dollars by money order, certified bank check, or
personal check (payable to IESCAREE). International Money Order is
required for payment from overseas. Evaluation fees are non-refundable.
- All fees are subject to change without notice.
