International Transcripts
Students who have completed an equivalency to a Bachelor’s degree, or higher, may first want to contact a four-year college or university to check if they will accept your entire degree. On occasion, the four-year college or university may offer recommendations for courses that may be taken at SLCC to transfer back to their institution.
In order for students to receive credit for courses taken from other colleges or universities outside of the United States, a foreign transcript evaluation must be completed by NACES® approved agency.
- You must be a degree-seeking student at Salt Lake Community College (SLCC).
- Credit is evaluated based upon a student’s Program of Study. Consult with an Academic Advisor if you are unclear about your educational goals at SLCC.
- All foreign transcripts must be translated into English.
- Must include a comprehensive report or course-by-course analysis.
- Must be sent to SLCC in a sealed envelope by a Foreign Evaluation Service that is a member of NACES® National Association of Credential Evaluation Services.
