About the Company

Foreign Credential Evaluations, Inc. (FCE) evaluates credentials received from educational institutions abroad (e.g. Bachillerato, Licenciado, Master, Diplom) and compares them to diplomas and degrees from educational institutions in the United States (some examples: High School Diploma, Bachelor, Master, Doctor of Philosophy, Doctor of Medicine).
 

Credentials are evaluated for law firms, universities, and employers for visas or placement in educational institutions. Credentials are also evaluated at the request of individuals for the same purposes. A course-by-course evaluation including the U.S. Grade Point Average (GPA) is provided based on submission of the appropriate documentation.

Since 1981 evaluations prepared by FCE have been accepted as authoritative by the U. S. Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services, U. S. and Georgia Departments of Labor, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Resources, medical facilities, and institutions of higher education in Georgia and other states. Membership is maintained in state, regional and national professional organizations related to credential evaluations, college admissions, and visas for persons entering the U. S. for professional positions. Also, extensive bibliographical and internet resources are kept for these purposes.

FCE evaluations adhere to the standards set forth by the Association of International Credential Evaluators (AICE), and closely follow the credential methodology, admission guidelines and placement recommendations approved by the International Evaluation Standards Council (formerly the National Council on the Evaluation of Foreign Educational Credentials), NAFSA: Association of International Educators, the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (AACRAO), the AACRAO EDGE (Electronic Database for Global Education) database, and other published sources on international and comparative education.

A Note About Evaluations

For over 30 years Foreign Credential Evaluations, Inc.® has prepared evaluations which have been accepted as authoritative by the INS and USCIS. The credentials we evaluate represent secondary school to post-doctoral levels of education and areas of specialization such as education, engineering, law and medicine. To date we have provided over 60,000 evaluations from over 140 countries.

Each evaluation is signed by the individual who reviewed the credentials submitted. No judgments are made without the full knowledge and approval of the evaluators. The seal of the corporation assures the recipient that the judgment made on the foreign credential represents a corporate decision based on the latest published bibliographical materials and the educational system of the Unites States. The judgments or opinions given in the evaluation are advisory only, and they are not binding on any institution or agency that may receive them. The evaluators cannot guarantee that the recipient will agree with their judgments.

FCE, Inc.® has been an endorsed member of the Association of International Credential Evaluators, Inc. (AICE) since 2005. AICE is one of the two national associations that oversee credential services.
