What is an academic credential evaluation?

It explains how education completed in one system compares with education in another. It may help a recipient understand a qualification, its level, and—in a detailed report—the courses studied. The recipient makes its own admission, employment or licensing decision.

Can I submit an application now?

Not yet. This is a service preview. You can compare proposed report formats and prepare a checklist, but applications, document uploads, payments and issued evaluations are not available.

How much will an evaluation cost?

ABAE fees, delivery charges, optional services and refund terms will be announced before applications open. No fee is quoted or collected on this website.
