NACES is not the only valid oversight in that field, btw. Most schools use WES as the go-to evaluator, sure, but schools have the right to accept or reject whatever they want. Admission requirements have flexibility, as they should.
This is about a Virginia school accepting graduate credits that were evaluated at the bachelor level by a NACES-approved evaluator...
That is meaningless. A different evaluator deemed it as Master's level and the school accepted that. It's a done deal.
The optics are not good! This "different evaluator" does not hold NACES nor AICE credentialing/approval. It is like saying anyone can hang a shingle and set up a degree credentialing/evaluation business that is accredited by the Better Business Bureau and damn you if you don't accept my evaluation. This is not the intent of an "equivalent evaluator" as mentioned in the school catalog. I asked previously, are there any other Universities in the State of Virginia that accept academic evaluations from Validential? Otherwise, lets agree to disagree, or end the argument without reaching a shared conclusion.
