And that means, if you get an ENEB evaluation from one of the FCE's and it comes in as RA equivalent credit (bachelors or graduate credit), it will work towards your Associates or Bachelors. As per the link above:

Credit recommendations from a required course-by-course international credit evaluation completed by one of the following agencies: Academic Credentials Evaluation Institute, Inc. (ACEI); Center for Applied Research, Evaluations & Education, Inc.; Educational Credential Evaluators, Inc. (ECE); World Educational Services, Inc.
