Evaluations vs. Translations
What is the difference between foreign credential evaluation and translation?
Foreign Credential Evaluations
Since the educational systems of countries vary greatly, comparing the educational level of individuals educated in different countries is complicated and requires specialized knowledge. The procedure used to make such a comparison is known as Foreign Credential Evaluation.
Foreign credential evaluation is the process of determining the U.S. academic equivalent of studies completed outside the United States. The process involves a thorough analysis of official academic credentials (diplomas; transcripts with courses, credits/hours, and grades; etc.) conducted by an expert evaluator. The evaluation process results in a final determination of equivalency which is issued in the form of a written Foreign Credential Evaluation Report. Please click here for Method of Operation.
Foreign Credential Translations
Translation of foreign educational credentials is often misunderstood as being the same as foreign credential evaluation, but they are two different processes. Translation is the process of rendering text in a different language. When the academic credentials being evaluated are issued in a language other than English, they must be translated into the English language first before they can be evaluated.
The cost of our Foreign Credential Evaluations is among the lowest of any recognized evaluation service, and we complete our non-rush evaluations in at least 15 business days. We also offer rush services for an additional fee. For specific fees and turnaround time, click on the service you are interested in.
For answers to common questions, please read the FAQ section which is now available in 10 languages.

TRADUCCIÓN DE TÍTULOS ACADÉMICOS EXTRANJEROS
A menudo, se considera que la traducción de títulos académicos extranjeros es lo mismo que la evaluación de títulos académicos extranjeros, pero se trata de dos procesos distintos. La traducción es el proceso de generar un texto en otro idioma. Cuando los títulos académicos evaluados se emiten en un idioma distinto del inglés, se deben traducir al idioma inglés antes de su evaluación.
