Procedure Update: In adhering to our mission of consumer protection and to ensure equal treatment for all applicants, we occasionally need to make changes to our practices to ensure that each applicant that applies meets our eligibility requirements in their entirety. The BACB is only accepting degrees that have undergone the degree equivalency evaluation review process that we oversee at our expense. We are no longer allowing applicants to refute our determinations using another evaluation service. Please note, our requirements have not changed. Instead, our procedures have been updated to ensure our requirements are consistently applied.
This evaluation helps applicants determine if their degree is from a qualifying accredited institution in an acceptable field of study. Use the form below to submit your initial request for an evaluation; however, please note that the following documents are also required:
- Original-source verification (e.g., transcripts, official statement of course/module grades/marks issued directly by the academic institution). in the original language.
- English translations of the original-source verification.
- Request your school submit an official copy of your diploma (official documentation attesting completion of program and award of degree) in the original language. If you are not able to obtain a copy of your diploma: you may submit a Diploma Supplement that shows your academic achievement on your program of study.
- English translations of the official diploma. If your diploma is not already in English: have your diploma translated and submit the translation directly to the BACB.
Please do not submit your original diploma or other irreplaceable documentation. Documents submitted to the BACB become the property of the BACB and will not be returned to the applicant.
These documents should be mailed to:
BACB Degrees
7950 Shaffer Parkway
Littleton, CO 80127
USA
Your school may also email your official transcripts & diplomas to international@bacb.com.
