Listed below are the companies that can evaluate your international credentials. All are independent and not affiliated with UMUC.

• Follow the specific instructions of the agency.
• Include full payment as instructed by the agency.
• Mail completed forms and payment directly to the agency, not to UMUC.

Some of the organizations listed below do general evaluations (also known as document-by-document) that state the educational levels or total hours attained. In order to transfer individual classes, students need to request a course-by-course evaluation so every class is evaluated for transfer.

UMUC reserves the right to determine acceptability and/or placement of international academic credit. Evaluation by an international evaluation agency does not guarantee acceptance or use in the UMUC degree.
