The MDCB understands there has been some confusion regarding the format of evaluation of foreign documentation.  We need your information evaluated on a course by course basis.

Let us know if you have any questions, we are here to help.

*The MDCB Board has adopted a policy which will affect International applicants beginning with the 2007 exam. Beginning with the 2007 MDCB exam, it is the responsibility of International applicants to submit all required documentation in English and to demonstrate "foreign equivalency" of all credentials submitted. Foreign equivalency documentation must be provided by an organization recognized by the MDCB.

The MDCB recognizes the following organizations for providing foreign equivalency documentation:

The Foundation for International Services, Inc.

International Education Research Foundation
