Frequently Asked Questions

1What are your rates?
We offer the lowest evaluation rates in the industry, and are the only agency that drops its prices. See our Prices page for our current rates!
2How long does it take?

We start your order on receipt of payment, and your draft evaluation is due Next Business Day. Once you approve the draft for mailing, standard mailing takes one week for US delivery; two weeks for Canada.

3 What is a General evaluation?

A General academic evaluation consists of our analysis of your diploma, our assessment of the equivalent degree within the U.S. (or Canadian) school system, our certification as to our evaluation accuracy, and mailing to one address. Our General academic evaluation reports are usually about 4 pages long.

4What is a Course by Course evaluation?

Course by Course evaluations can be used for all purposes, and include the analysis of your diploma and transcripts/marksheets, our assessment of the equivalent academic level and GPA within the US (or Canadian) school system, calculation of your credits earned, our certification of evaluation accuracy, and mailing to one address. Course by Course evaluations are typically 7-10 pages long.

5What if I don’t like it?

If you don't like your draft evaluation, just cancel prior to mailing for a full refund (excluding rush fees).

6Why are your pricess so much less than your competitors?

We're very efficient with our document management process, so pass along our efficiency to you in the form of lower prices and faster delivery times. That's why we show you our competitors' prices - so you can see for yourself that we're ranked #1 in speed and #1 in price!

7Will a General evaluation be sufficent for me? After all, it’s cheaper!
