Foreign Degree Evaluation Agencies

The following identified, independent nonprofit agencies perform the specialized service of validating your academic degree as equivalent to the bachelor's or master's degree conferred by a U.S. regionally-accredited college or university. The summary section of the evaluation report MUST state "From a USDE recognized institution." Contact the agency for current information, procedure and costs. CDR does not endorse any specific agency that is listed below. The list is provided as a convenience to international students and professionals. All transactions between the individual and evaluation service are considered private business transactions, without Academy or CDR intercession or obligation.

Several types of evaluations are available. A detailed course-by-course evaluation will be the most useful for the Program Director at an ACEND^®-accredited Didactic Program in Dietetics or Coordinated Program. The Program Director will evaluate your previous academic preparation and identify the courses you will need to meet the didactic program requirements.

Please review all completed evaluations to insure that the statement "regionally accredited" is documented on the official evaluation report.
