Foreign Diploma Verification
Foreign Diploma Verification
High school diplomas from a foreign country are recognized as a valid diploma if the foreign secondary school credentials are evidence of completing the equivalent of a secondary education in the United States. The College does not have the expertise to make that determination therefore the student must use a foreign diploma evaluation service.
Requirements for Missing Documentation
If an applicant indicates that he or she cannot obtain documentation of his or her completion of a secondary school education in a foreign country, applicants must submit:
Proof of attempt: Proof of their attempt to obtain documentation of their completion of a secondary school education in a foreign country, i.e., a copy of an e-mail or letter, including proof of mailing;
Signed Statement: A signed and dated statement that indicates that the applicant completed his or her secondary school education in a foreign country, the name and address of the foreign high school where the applicant completed the secondary school education and the date when the foreign high school diploma was awarded.
