Standard Application

Required Documentation

Below is a description of IERF’s general document requirements. If you have questions about terms like “official record of study” or “professional translations,” you can visit our handy glossary of terms. It is strongly advised that you check for any institutional requirements as well. If your evaluation is intended for a specific institution, such as a school or a state licensing board, it is important to check if they require that the report be based on ORIGINAL academic records.

IERF General Document Requirements

IERF Country Specific Document Requirements

Be certain that you have all the necessary documents before sending your application, as missing documents will delay the processing of your evaluation.

Also, be sure to read the IERF Country-Specific Requirements section (below), as it provides a more detailed description of the required academic records by country of study.

Note: Before submitting your academic records to IERF, it is advised that you also keep a copy in your possession, in case you need to refer to it while your documents are being evaluated at IERF.

Academic Records

Please note that IERF requires official academic records. Unofficial student copies will not be accepted, even if they are issued by the school.

Please submit the following:

Transcripts / Mark Sheets / Examination Certificates / Academic Records indicating courses/subjects, hours of study/units/credits, and grades/marks/examination results, issued in the original language. These must be issued on institutional letterhead and include official signatures and seals. If the hours/units/credits are not included on the academic records, please submit program descriptions/syllabi issued by the institution, where applicable.

Diplomas / Graduation Certificates / Degree Certificates issued in the original language (indicating that a degree/qualification has been earned or that a program of study has been completed). If the degree was not earned, please indicate so in writing.

If available, plan of studies / curriculum indicating the structure of your program of study

Copy of the title page, abstract, table of contents, and first ten pages of the dissertation for the evaluation of doctoral studies

Please note that if you have continued on to postsecondary studies, you are not required to submit academic records for secondary studies. Also, if you have completed graduate studies, the undergraduate academic records are still required as supporting documentation, although you may choose to not include them in the evaluation.

If you have completed studies in the United States, please submit a copy of the transcript and/or diploma as supporting documentation. Please note, however, that your US studies will not be included in the evaluation, as colleges, universities, and licensing agencies evaluate credentials from the United States according to their individual policies.

Original Documents

Original academic records are required for licensure (i.e., accounting, architecture, teaching, etc.) and for many schools and universities. Before you apply, it is recommended that you contact the institution for whom the report is intended to determine if they require that the evaluation be based on original academic records.

In some instances, IERF also requires original academic records. Please be sure to check IERF’s Country-Specific Requirements (see section below) for more information.

Official certified true copies of academic records issued by the institution of study or relevant government body may be acceptable as original, whereas notarized copies are not.

Helpful Tip:
Even when they are not required by the intended recipient or by IERF’s Country-Specific Requirements (see section below), it is recommended that you submit original academic documents to prevent any potential delay in the processing of your application. Please note that IERF also reserves the right to request original documents at any time during the evaluation process.

All original documents submitted by the applicant will be returned when the evaluation is mailed.

Photocopies

Original documents (including translations) must be accompanied by clear, legible and full-sized photocopies (front and back). Otherwise, you will be assessed a $20 fee. Photocopies become the property of IERF.

If you are submitting sealed records (e.g., official records in an envelope sealed by your school), please note that the photocopy requirement / fee is waived.

Translations

Translations must be submitted for all records not officially issued in English. These must be in the same format as the original-language documents, line-by-line, word-for-word, and must be typed. IERF reserves the right to request translations prepared by professional translation services.

In some instances, professional translations are required. Please be sure to check IERF’s Country-Specific Requirements (see section below) for more information.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT ALREADY HAVE A SET OF ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS: Before mailing your academic records to IERF, also be sure to keep copies in your possession, so that you may arrange to have the translations done.

IERF has negotiated a special discount with University Language Services for our applicants who use their translation services. You can contact them directly through their website to learn more about the discount.

If submitting original translations, please include a set of clear, legible and full-sized photocopies (front and back). Otherwise, you will be assessed a $20 fee. Photocopies become the property of IERF.

Proof of Name Change

If your name has changed, please submit proof of name change (e.g. copy of a marriage certificate or other legal document, etc.).

Acupuncture Transcript Request Form (for licensure in Acupuncture only)

If you are applying for licensure in Acupuncture, you will need to forward the Acupuncture Transcript Request Form to your educational institution, and request that they mail it directly to IERF, along with your official academic records.

Transfer Credit or Credit for Study Abroad, Given by Your Home Institution

If your home institution gave you credit for studies completed in another school / country outside the US, please arrange to send in the official transcript, issued by the original institution of study (for which transfer credit was given). This is only required if you wish to have these studies included. IERF asks for these records, as evaluations must be based on primary source documents.

EXCEPTIONS:
For some programs, a study abroad component is required and, as such, it is pre-arranged through your school (home institution). In these instances, a separate transcript from that institution of study is not required IF your home institution includes a full breakdown of the subjects studied, the grades earned, and any associated credits/course weighting normally provided on the record of study.

Additionally, if you studied in the Philippines, and transferred from one college or university to another within the Philippines, then a separate transcript is not required, as it is standard practice for the most current school to serve as custodian of your postsecondary records.

If any information is unclear, IERF will require a separate transcript from the initial institution of study.

Request for Additional Information

Please note that at any time during the evaluation process, IERF reserves the right to request original documents, additional documents, and/or that documents be sent directly to IERF by the issuing institutions. All records received from the institution(s) of study will become the property of IERF and will not be returned to the applicant.

Please submit the requested documentation and/or fees within 4 months. Otherwise, your case will be closed and a $80 fee will be required to re-open your case.

IERF Country-Specific Requirements

Be certain that you have all the necessary documents before sending your application, as missing documents will delay the processing of your evaluation.

This section provides a detailed description of the required academic records by country of study. It is recommended that you first read the IERF General Document Requirements section (above). It is strongly advised that you check for any institutional requirements as well. If your evaluation is intended for a specific institution, such as a school or a state licensing board, it is important to check if they require that the report be based on ORIGINAL academic records.
