FOREIGN DEGREE EVALUATIONS

For positions or assignments that require a degree, all foreign degree credentials must be evaluated by a third party to determine the equivalent U.S. degree and major, and the Foreign Credential Evaluation must be attached to your application before your application will be considered. Employment Applications that do not include the Foreign Credential Evaluation for foreign degrees will be considered incomplete. Evaluations must include the name of the institution attended, a description of your credentials, the major field of study, and the U.S. equivalent for each credential. It is recommended that the evaluation include language that states the degree is equivalent to a regionally accredited college and/or university in the United States. SRJC accepts foreign transcripts that have been evaluated by a credential evaluation service accredited by the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES). Note: If your graduate degree(s) were obtained in the U.S., you must attach a Foreign Credential Evaluation for your undergraduate degree if it was obtained outside the U.S.

The credential evaluation report submitted to SRJC should include the following information:

-Lower/upper division course recommendations

-Course titles and descriptions (if possible)

-School calendar system Units (credits) and grades Accreditation credentials of school or university.
