Transcript:
Applicants must demonstrate that they have completed the degree equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree to be admitted to a master's program. In order to ensure that U.S. accreditation standards, degree, course and credit equivalencies are met, transcripts from higher education institutions outside the U.S. must be evaluated by World Education Services or Educational Credential Evaluators.
For applicants who hold a degree from a higher education institution outside the U.S.: Students who have earned a degree at an international school must submit an official course-by-course evaluation from either World Education Services (WES) or Educational Credential Evaluators (ECE) in order to be considered for admission.
For applicants who are currently enrolled in a bachelor’s degree program outside the U.S.: Applicants must demonstrate that they have successfully completed the degree equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree before they may be considered for admission to a master's program. Please be advised Georgetown SCS will not review graduate admissions applications while a bachelor’s degree is in-progress at a higher education institution outside the U.S. Students applying to a master's program should complete the degree before obtaining a WES or ECE evaluation (see “Applicants who hold a degree from a higher education institution outside the U.S.” above).
The Office of Admissions can request a transcript from a study abroad program or an official WES/ECE evaluation if deemed necessary during the review of an admissions application. In certain cases, students who have participated in a formal study abroad program through their home institution may not need to submit a separate transcript from their visiting school. Please contact the Office of Admissions for more information regarding your particular circumstances.
