What is the difference between a basic and course-by-course evaluation?
The basic statement determines only the level of comparability between your foreign education and U.S. education. The course-by-course includes the comparability level of your education and lists each of your courses along with the equivalent U.S. marks and credit. In most cases a basic evaluation is suitable for employment purposes, university admission as a first year student or as a graduate student; a course-by-course is usually needed for students transferring to U.S. institutions with previous university-level study from outside the U.S. You should inquire with the final recipient of the evaluation as to what type of evaluation they will need to receive.
