Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Degree Equivalency Checker?
The Degree Equivalency Checker is a free tool that instantly assesses whether an international qualification is equivalent to a US, UK, Canadian, or Australian degree. It returns a clear Equivalent, Conditionally Equivalent, or Not Directly Equivalent verdict with an explanation and personalised next steps.
Which countries and degrees does it cover?
The checker covers degrees from over 20 source countries — including the UK, India, China, Nigeria, Philippines, Germany, Brazil, and more — and assesses equivalency against bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees for the USA, UK, Canada, and Australia.
What does Conditionally Equivalent mean?
Conditionally Equivalent means the degree may be accepted as equivalent, but typically requires a formal evaluation from a recognised body such as WES, ECE, or NACES. Some institutions have specific policies — particularly for 3-year bachelor's degrees from South Asian countries — and a professional evaluation adds credibility to your application.
Is a professional credential evaluation always required?
Not always. Many institutions accept a Degree Equivalency Checker result for initial screening, but for formal admission, employment, or immigration purposes, a professional evaluation from WES, NACES, or UK ENIC is almost always required. The checker helps you prepare before commissioning a paid evaluation.
Is the Degree Equivalency Checker free to use?
Yes — the Degree Equivalency Checker is completely free. No login, subscription, or account is required. All equivalency logic runs in your browser and no personal data is transmitted to any server.

"Before commissioning a WES evaluation, we now use this tool to give applicants an immediate answer. It filters out clear cases and reduces back-and-forth on credentials that obviously don't qualify."

James Okoro
International Student Advisor, University of Birmingham
★★★★★

"The verdict explanation is exactly what students need to hear before they spend £200 on a NARIC evaluation. It clearly explains why a 3-year Nigerian degree may need additional review."

PS

DSO, Arizona State University
★★★★☆

"Useful for quick intake screening. The WES and NACES links in the evaluation bodies section save us from explaining the same resources every time a new student arrives."

LM
Lena Müller
Study Abroad Coordinator, Freie Universität Berlin
★★★★★

"Students applying from Germany often don't know that a Diplom is sometimes evaluated above a US Master's. This tool gets them to the right answer quickly and builds confidence before the formal process."
