Students who have earned college credits outside of the US will require a course-by-course evaluation in English translation via WES. Students who already have an Official evaluation completed through an agency other than WES should contact the Registrar at 240-500-2341 for further questions. Hagerstown Community College may consider other evaluations if approved by NACES.

If the student has taken CLEP, DSST, AP or similar exams, official score reports must be submitted, as well.  It is important that students have a completed credit evaluation before scheduling courses at HCC. Credits taken at regionally accredited institutions will be applied the program of study chosen by the student.
