1 Making Your Foreign Education Count in The U.S. INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION INTELLIGENCE
2 Today s Agenda Welcome and Introductions The Recognition of Foreign Credentials Using Your WES Evaluation Employment Professional Licensing and Certification Education NOVA Programs Admission Requirements: Dr. Elizabeth Harper Financial Aid: Ms. Joan Zanders ESL Classes: Ms. Heidi Adamson 2
3 About World Education Services (WES) Non-profit organization (NGO), founded in Has served 750,000 individuals, about 50,000 each year, from all countries WES Mission: To foster the integration of individuals educated outside the U.S. into academic and professional settings Primary Service: Providing evaluation reports so that legitimate academic credentials earned abroad are understood and fully recognized WES reports are widely accepted by universities, licensing boards, employers, government agencies 3
4 Barriers to Success for Educated Immigrants More than 1.3 million college-educated immigrants in the U.S. are unemployed or working in unskilled jobs. Many others also work well below their skill and educational level Migration Policy Institute, Uneven Progress, 2008 WHY IS THIS? Not familiar with U.S. employment culture and skills, lack professional networks, lack of U.S. work experience Limited English skills Academic credentials and professional skills/experience are not recognized 4
5 First of all. Foreign Credential Recognition in the U.S. Your foreign education does have value in the U.S.! Each institution/agency sets its own rules regarding recognition and acceptance No government agency or single standard Some institutions do their own evaluations, but most designate external evaluation services Evaluation services (like WES) Operate independently 5 Charge fees $ (General) $ (Detailed)
6 Document-by-Document Report $100 Identifies and describes each diploma or certificate Indicates periods of education, Provides an equivalency for each document. This is the report you should generally order for: 6 Employment (when Licensing or Certification is not required) Immigration
7 Comprehensive Course-by-Course Report $160 Document-by-Document report, PLUS : Lists all subjects completed at the post-secondary level Provides a U.S. semester credit and grade equivalent for each course Provides a U.S. grade point average (GPA) on a 4.0 scale This is the report you should order for: Education Professional licensing Professional certification 7
8 Choosing a Service Always check with the institution or agency re: What type of report they require What services they accept or recommend When given a choice - choose wisely Recognition Are reports widely accepted? Fees check the total cost, watch for hidden fees Be careful of sponsored links found through web searches National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES)
9 WES Document Requirements WES authenticates ALL documents Why? Adds credibility and gives confidence to recipient Addresses concerns about fraud and diploma mills Helps U.S. employers verify foreign degrees Obtaining Documents Country-specific instructions Getting official documents takes time, but easier than you think 9
10 Online Evaluation Tools Tells you how your degrees and grades are viewed in the U.S. For unofficial purposes and guidance only Enable you to focus your employment search or academic application at the appropriate level International Degree Preview ($30) $20 credit back on evaluation fee igpa Calculator ($8)
11 How to Use Your Evaluation Reports can be used for different purposes Education & Professional Licensing/Certification (Detailed) Employment & Immigration (General) Presenting Your Evaluation Include your WES equivalency, GPA, etc. on your resume and in your cover letter Bring copies to interviews Offer to have official report sent directly Limits of an Evaluation Not binding on recipient institution Each institution or agency decides how to use
12 For Employment Employer Familiarity / Recognition Most government agencies - Federal and State and large companies accept WES evaluations Smaller businesses may not be familiar with evaluations Concerns about fraud Companies can easily and quickly verify U.S. degrees, but foreign degrees not easily checked by non-experts Sell (explain) your WES evaluation Mention in resume, cover letter, interview Employers can call WES to verify report, ask questions WES has Employment Resources at 12
13 Gaining U.S. Experience / Service Learning Volunteering or Internships allows you to find opportunities to re-enter your career field or try a new field of interest Gain experience in U.S. workplace Utilize, demonstrate and update your skills Build your network Develop references (and maybe a mentor) Strengthen your resume Improve your English Taking Courses - Even if you have strong academic credentials from overseas, it can be useful to update your skills, gain new skills, or improve your English to improve your chances of finding employment.
14 For Professional Licensing License is required for some professional activities (e.g. Health-related, Teaching, Accounting) Process is complicated, time-consuming, expensive BUT: Licensing is not always necessary Related fields may be more easily accessible Licensing is State-Regulated Each state has separate boards for various professions National certifications are sometimes required 14
15 For Professional Licensing Credential Evaluation Usually Required For authentication and coursework Lists and links are provided on: Licensing Boards that accept WES evaluation: Virginia State Board of Accountancy Virginia State Department of Education Maryland State Board of Public Accountancy Maryland State Department of Education 15 Maryland State Board of Professional Engineering
16 For Professional Certification Professional Certification Voluntary credentialing process Granted by a non-governmental, private association Find your professional association at Sometimes a prerequisite for state licensing Professional Associations that accept WES evaluation: American Board for Certification of Teacher Excellence (ABCTE) American Dental Education Association (ADEA) American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) 16
17 For Education Undergraduate Admission / Transfer Credit Helps college staff determine eligibility Determine advanced standing/transfer credit Graduate and Professional Degrees Course-by-Course Evaluations w-gpa - if college credits are involved More information - 17
18 Credit Transfer Each institution decides whether to recognize your non-u.s. academic work Most will recognize a limited amount of credit toward a degree at their institution Issues that institutions consider in awarding credit Is your university or college recognized by the ministry of education in your country? How applicable are your courses toward the degree that you wish to pursue? What is the maximum number of credits that the school allows you to transfer? 18
19 Local Institutions that Accept WES Reports Partial List Always check with the Institution George Mason University James Madison University Liberty University Virginia Northern Virginia Community College Regent University Shenandoah University University of Virginia Nursing, Graduate Programs University of Virginia's College at Wise Virginia Commonwealth University School of Pharmacy Virginia State University Undergraduate Studies Washington, DC & Maryland American University School of Business Georgetown University School of Nursing and Health Studies University of the District of Columbia Howard University Graduate School Hood College Johns Hopkins University Business, Nursing, Education, Grad A&S Loyola University Maryland Undergraduate Programs Montgomery College Morgan State University School of Business and Management University of Baltimore 19

31 To apply for federal and state financial aid: You must be a U.S. citizen, eligible non-citizen, or permanent resident. The first step is completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). If you have a bachelor s degree or higher-level professional degree, you will not be eligible for a Pell Grant, but you might qualify for some other assistance. If you don t tell us about the bachelor s degree but we find out later you could need to pay back a lot of money.
32 Points to remember: If you have the equivalent of a U. S. bachelor s degree or a higher-level professional degree from another country you MUST declare it. Ask for an official transcript from schools attended and have the transcript(s) evaluated. Whether you can use the degree in the U. S. or not, you must tell us you have the degree. You could benefit by having credits transfer to NOVA and apply to your new program of study. Transfer credits are money in the bank!
33 If you are not eligible for federal or state aid: Apply for scholarships (NOVA website - free) (free) (free) (free) Never pay for a scholarship search or a financial aid advisor!!
34 Some alternative education loans might be available, but be careful not to accept a loan with a high interest rate. Credit cards can also have very high interest rates.
35 NOVA s special programs could also provide funding: Training Futures Year Up Talk to a counselor!
36 The financial aid representatives on each campus can assist you, or you can with your questions. Information and brochures will be available at the financial aid table after the presentations!
