Schools Need guidance on CED evaluation for India university transcript

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the process of sending academic documents from India to CED for course-by-course evaluation to determine the equivalency of a three-year undergraduate degree (BCA) to a U.S. degree. The user has gathered necessary documents, including semester mark sheets, a consolidated mark sheet, a provisional certificate, and a transfer certificate. According to CED's requirements, only original or clear official copies of diplomas, transcripts, and any applicable certification notices should be submitted.Key questions raised include whether to send original semester mark sheets or just the consolidated mark sheet, and if any additional documents are needed. Responses suggest that if the consolidated mark sheet includes all grades, sending the semester mark sheets may not be necessary. It is also advised to refer to the CED website for specific requirements and to contact them directly if there are uncertainties about the documentation needed.

I am from India. I am sending my degree mark sheets and certificates to CED for course by course evaluation to see if my 3 years Indian UG degree (BCA) is equivalent to that of US. (Ok probably the ans is no but an institution requires it)

I have the following documents:

1) mark sheet of each semester
2) consolidated mark sheet of all semesters
3) provisional certificate from the university
4) transfer certificate from the institution mentioning course completed and grade obtained.

per CED website, documents required are:

* Diplomas/certificates/degrees;
* Transcripts or course and grade listings;
* Notice of certification if applicable
(teacher, accountant, pharmacist)

and also

"Only originals, or clear and legible official copies of documents should be submitted."

Hence:

1) should I send the original of either each semester mark sheets or the consolidate one?
2) any other document that might be required from a student in India?

If anyone from India who has had CED evaluations please can share your experience, I will be really glad.

1) If the consolidated one includes all grades, I don't see any reason to send the semester mark sheets.
2) I have no idea about that one, but I guess the website does state what you have to send, so if unsure, just contact them.
 
Thank you Ryker.
 
After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...
I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
Hello, I’m an undergraduate student pursuing degrees in both computer science and physics. I was wondering if anyone here has graduated with these degrees and applied to a physics graduate program. I’m curious about how graduate programs evaluated your applications. In addition, if I’m interested in doing research in quantum fields related to materials or computational physics, what kinds of undergraduate research experiences would be most valuable?
