- Unofficial academic transcripts, along with a translated copy if they are not originally in English.
- An evaluation of your undergraduate diploma and transcript by Global Credential Evaluators (gceus.com) or another NACES-approved credential service if your degree was obtained outside of the U.S. It is necessary to request a course-by-course evaluation and a calculated GPA.
