- an evaluation of your transcripts and other documents associated with your studies in terms of Canadian equivalencies.
More About Credential Evaluation
A credential evaluation service verifies documents, prepares objective analytical reports, describes international educational credentials, and interprets them in terms of their Canadian equivalents.
An evaluation report makes international education credentials transparent and readily understood in Canadian terms. It does not make a recommendation on admission. Mohawk College will use the information contained in the evaluation report to make a decision on admission and placement.
The evaluation is an objective, third party analysis of your academic credentials. It gives you a sense of what to expect when your application is considered for admission or credit transfer. It also speeds up the application and response cycle.
