Studying in the United States: Introduction to application materials that require WES certification

This article introduces in detail the materials required to apply for WES certification for studying in the United States. In the past two years, more and more universities require WES certification for American university applications. Here is a detailed introduction to WES certification institutes. Materials required.

Verified graduation certificates

Verified degree certificates

Verified academic transcripts for all post-secondary programs of study

Note: Inquiry application When you check the status, you can see that in addition to the above three materials, WES also requires a Photocopy of Degree Certificate (English). Later, I couriered this item myself, and they started my evaluation. When everyone applies for certification from the Ministry of Education, in addition to the materials required by the Ministry of Education, please also attach this document. After the Ministry of Education completes the certification, send the documents to WES together, so that you don’t have to send it again yourself like me. . Of course, you have to ask the Ministry of Education first if it is willing to do this. I have not tried it.

These materials require two Ministry of Education agencies designated by WES:

Ministry of Education Degree and Graduate Education Development Center www.cdgdc.edu.cn or China Higher Education Student Information Network www.chsi.com.cn, that is to say, you must submit the materials to either of these two organizations for certification first, and then they will help you authenticate and then send the materials to WES

In addition, I see many people asking whether transcripts and degree certificates can be sent directly to WES through the school instead of sending them to the Ministry of Education. There is a post on the Internet, and the process described in it is to send it directly to WES through the school, without going through the Ministry of Education. But the person who posted the post said that he had a college degree, and WES also said in it that for Secondary-education (that is, undergraduate and below), you can send your transcripts and academic certificates by yourself. However, for bachelor's degree or above, the required materials must pass two institutions of the Ministry of Education, otherwise they will be invalid. So it is better to send it to the Ministry of Education for certification first, otherwise it will cost money and time, otherwise WES will not specifically indicate this on the Internet.

Also, some students said that the school I applied to Only transcripts need to be certified by WES. Then I can send the transcripts to WES through my school. According to my understanding, WES does not give us the option to certify only the degree or only the transcripts. The complete materials it requires are It includes transcripts, degree certificates, and graduation certificates, so it’s better to send them to the Ministry of Education for certification first.

The above is a detailed introduction to the materials required to apply for WES certification of American universities. In the past two years, more and more universities require WES certification for American university applications. I hope it will be helpful to everyone.
