What is a Course-by-Course/Transcript Evaluation?
A Course-by-Course or Transcript Evaluation is an in-depth academic credential assessment that breaks down each course you completed at your previous institution. Unlike a simple general academic equivalency report, this evaluation assigns US credit equivalents and converts your grades to US letter grades for every course. It also calculates a cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA) on the American 4.0 scale and provides a US degree equivalency designation.
This detailed approach helps admissions officers understand your full academic background, making it easier for them to place you in the right program or grant appropriate transfer credits.

Course-by-Course Evaluations are Ideal For:
- International applicants seeking admission to US undergraduate or graduate programs
- Individuals requiring a detailed academic record assessment for scholarships or professional licensing
- Students who need to transfer academic credits or qualify for advanced placement

Why You Need a Course-by-Course Evaluation for US University Admission
US colleges and universities require a course-by-course evaluation to accurately assess international applicants’ academic preparation. This evaluation is critical for:
- Determining eligibility for admission and placement.
- Evaluating your readiness for specific degree programs.
- Identifying courses for potential credit transfer, which can shorten your time to graduation.
Without it, admissions committees receive only a vague understanding of your academic history, potentially putting you at a disadvantage.

I sent my documents for translation, and within just a few hours, they completed the translation and emailed it back to me. I was expecting to receive it the next day at best, so getting it so quickly made everything much easier for me. I was also very impressed with the professional format and attention to detail. Thank you so much! I highly recommend their service.
The translation was fast and precise. Very good job. Good price with no hidden cost.
Quick response, I have my translated document the same day and also they have good prices.
Excellent translator and translation of my birth certificate. I did a birth certificate translation with a notary in person and the translation was not accurate, but with MotaWord everything was exactly how I needed it. Thanks to all the MotaWord team. God bless you all.
You guys did not translate my handwritten name on the card, but after I chatted with an assistant, she helped me and corrected it right away, kudos to her.
A mistake was made several years ago and just now noticed. I reached out asking for help and the mistake was promptly fixed without charge. I really appreciate the consideration given to my case. You earned my respect. Thank you!
The evaluation service was quick, delivery period was as expected and offered. The report was comprehensive and factual.
About NACES & AICE Membership
While many US colleges and universities prefer credential evaluations from agencies accredited by NACES (National Association of Credential Evaluation Services) or AICE (Association of International Credential Evaluators), we are not members of either organization. We strongly recommend verifying with your prospective schools whether this membership is a requirement before ordering an evaluation from us. Our non-membership status allows us to offer our course-by-course evaluations at significantly lower prices, passing these cost savings directly to you without sacrificing quality or accuracy.
