Dear ashishjha100,

It depends on if your masters is similar or considered equivalent to an MBA. You will want to look at your curriculum and credit requirements to get an idea. For a definitive answer, you might have your transcript evaluated by World Evaluation Services or Global Credential Evaluators. These services will also provide a GPA conversion.

Good luck,
Lisa

There is so much variance in masters programs in terms of curriculum and credit requirements, that I cannot provide a definitive answer for your degree. The best way to know is as I mentioned before--compare your transcript to the core curriculum and credit requirements of the schools are you considering. If you still don't have a good answer, then contact the schools directly and ask them.

WES and GCE will look at domestic transcripts, but you are correct that they mainly evaluate international schools against the US system. I think your best course of action is to contact one of the schools directly and ask.

Good luck,
Lisa
