Admissions Requirements
Foreign Credential Evaluation
All undergraduate and graduate applicants who have any educational experience outside the United States are required to provide an official course-by-course evaluation to include the cumulative grade point average. The evaluation must be certified by one of the Foreign Credential Evaluation Services (FCE) approved by Embry‑Riddle. A fee is charged for the service and must be paid by the applicant directly to the FCE.
If a student has graduate-level work (either transfer or advanced standing) that is indicated on the foreign credential evaluation as meeting the requirements for an undergraduate degree, it will not be reviewed for applicability toward an Embry‑Riddle graduate degree.
Educational systems differ country by country. Foreign Credential Evaluation Services are well versed in providing a comparison of a country’s education system to that of the United States system. This comparison includes education levels, credits and grades.
