Hi Stacy,

I have around 6 years of IT Industry experience and planning to give GMAT this year. I am targetting any part-time MBA/Weekends/Executive MBA courses (Not the full-time one). Is it mandatory to submit my GPA score in application process? If yes, Could you name or give pointers to few agency/instituation who convert GPA from the percentage given by the university?

Thanks,
BPJ

Dear BPJ,

Your GPA from your undergraduate coursework will be asked for by any MBA program you apply to, regardless of the program's schedule. There are many credentialing services out there, all of which can translate, evaluate and convert your transcripts to the US system. I think World Evaluation Services and Global Credential Evaluators are the two best ones and highly regarded by most schools.

Good luck,
Lisa
