chepeast options for international transcripts?

[ss20ts]

International students often leave out college work from abroad because it is costly to obtain the transcript evaluation. I have seen many students pay for the evaluation and be very disappointed because the courses only transfer as general electives. This is why I say it may not be worth the money to bother with the evaluation. There was someone on here a few weeks ago who was applying from Japan and all of their credits were general electives. If I remember correctly they had something like 70 credits and all they were good for were general electives so it can be really disappointing and feel like a punch in the gut. Sometimes it's better to just keep moving forward and not try to use old credits.
