Hi...

I got my Bachelors Degree of Chemical Engineering in the Phils. Now, i'm planning to take MBA here in USA..I learned that I need to submit my credentials for evaluation, to assess on its equivalent to USA standard.

Anybody here who has experience on this? Any recommendation of gov't office or agency I can deal with regarding this evaluation?

Any input will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance..

best regards!

hi, just check www.wes.org- instructions are simple and easy to comply with. The only difficult part is somebody who will follow it up back in Manila when you are to send your requests coz you can't submit for evaluation whatever credentials you have now. wes.org just need your photocopied diploma if you have with you now as an initial credential to be submitted while waiting credentials coming form Manila.... here click this one http://www.wes.org/required/index.asp, http://www.wes.org/fees/schedule.asp, make sure first that you already have a target school to send your credential evaluation because sometimes they don't accept copies that is already in your hands, it should be sealed with signature on the seal flap when they will be handed to them. I hope this would help you... God bless :innocent:
