Hi, I obtained my bachelor's degree in a foreign country and sent the official foreign transcript to optomcas. The problem is that I just learned that optomcas does NOT forward foreign transcripts without an official evaluation, although the evaluation is not required by the optometry program. I am contacting the optometry program regarding this issue but have not got an reply yet. Anyone has experience with this? Should I just go ahead and order an evaluation in case it is needed? But I don't know which evaluation agency will be accepted.

I don't have an answer, but rather, a similar question for anyone who reads this thread and might know....

How do schools evaluate transcripts from exchange studies/study abroad semesters?
