Class start
If you have previous education outside of the U.S. (i.e., foreign credentials), there are extra requirements to complete to enroll at Chamberlain.
Chamberlain completes foreign credential evaluations in-house. Official transcripts must be sent from the previous school directly to Chamberlain for an internal evaluation.
If you’d like an evaluation performed by a third party (i.e., an evaluation to share with other schools), a credit-by-credit or credential equivalency evaluation of your transcripts by a NACES member agency is required. The evaluation must be sent directly to Chamberlain from the credential agency.
Please review Chamberlain’s policy for international transcripts:
An English translation of your non-English transcripts is required. Translations can be completed by an official agency for transcript translation or a previous school.
Proof of English proficiency is required.
Confirm requirements with Chamberlain's Admissions Department before paying out of pocket for an evaluation, translation, and/or exam.
If you need more help with the foreign credentials process, please review this article. You can also message Guild Support or call 1-800-985-4027 (Monday-Friday, 7 a.m. - 7 p.m. MT).
Per the Employer policy, each student enrolling in a program that is eligible for federal financial aid may be required to complete one or more of the following items before initial program enrollment and annually thereafter: FAFSA, financial aid packaging / awarding process, accept any grant aid awarded. If any grants are accepted they will be applied to tuition and mandatory fees before employer payment. If you have questions regarding your Employer education benefit policy, please consult Guild support. If you have questions about financial aid, please contact your learning provider's financial aid office.
