Here is the translation to American English:

The IEE (International Education Evaluation) offers a comprehensive service to convert school and university grades into the American grading system. This evaluation is often required when applying to a US university to ensure that your academic performance is correctly assessed. This guide will show you step-by-step how to request your transcript evaluation with IEE.

1. What documents do I need?

Make sure you have the following digital documents (in PDF format) ready:

• German transcripts starting from 9th grade as copies.

• English translations of the transcripts (if already available).

If you are already studying at a university:

• German and English Transcripts of Records (academic records) for all semesters completed so far.

Additionally, you will need a credit card for the payment process.

2. Create an IEE Account

To conduct the evaluation with IEE, you need your own IEE account. Proceed as follows:

1. Access the IEE account page: Visit myiee.org and click on "Create an Account".

2. Enter your personal data: Enter your first and last name, your email address, and your date of birth.

3. Create a secure password: Set a password and confirm it. Remember your password well, as you will need it later to check the evaluation status.

4. Confirm your account: You will receive a confirmation email. Click the link in the email to activate your account.

3. Create and complete your profile

After creating your account, complete your profile:

1. Enter your personal data: All required fields are marked with a red asterisk.

2. Add contact information: Provide your full address and phone number so that IEE can contact you directly if they have any questions.

3. Select your country of origin:

   • Choose the country from which your transcripts originate (e.g., Germany, Austria, Switzerland).

4. Specify the type of evaluation:

   • If you need a detailed course-by-course analysis, select "Course-by-Course Evaluation".

   • For a general evaluation, the "Document-by-Document Evaluation" is often sufficient, but a GPA (Grade Point Average) will not be calculated.

4. Determine document requirements

On the next page, you will be asked to provide the status of your transcripts and the language:

1. Language of the documents:

   • If your transcripts are in German and no English translation is available, select "Translation required".

   • If possible, also upload English translations to accelerate the evaluation process.

2. Have the documents verified?

   • Verification is optional in most cases. However, it is recommended if you are already studying at a university or submitting a university degree.

   • Select either "Verification is not required" or "Please perform verification" (additional cost of approximately $50).

5. Select the evaluation type

1. Evaluation Type:

   • Choose "Course-by-Course" if a detailed grade overview and a GPA are required.

   • Choose "Document-by-Document" if only a general confirmation of the transcripts is needed.

2. Set the processing time:

   • Select the Standard Service (7–10 business days) or a faster processing (2 or 5 business days) based on your urgency.

3. Additional options:

   • Select "No, thank you" for the "Certified Copy Add-on" if a certified copy of the original transcripts is not required.

6. Enter your academic history

Enter the data of your academic career:

1. Enter the names of your schools or universities:

   • Add the details of all the institutions you have attended, e.g., "Gymnasium XY" or "Universität ABC".

2. Time period and type of degree:

   • For "Start Date," select the date you began the school.

   • For "End Date," enter either the graduation date or the expected graduation date.

3. Received the transcript?:

   • Select "Yes" if you already have the degree, or "No" if you will receive it later.

4. Specify the type of degree:

   • Select the appropriate degree, e.g., "Fachhochschulreife," "Abitur," "Matura," or "Allgemeine Hochschulreife".

5. Save: Click "Submit".

7. Upload transcripts

Now upload your school and university transcripts to the IEE system:

1. Click on "Upload Documents".

2. Select the files on your computer:

   • Upload the transcripts from 9th grade onwards in German and, if available, in English.

3. Label the documents:

   • Label each document with a short title, e.g., "10th Grade German" or "11th Grade English".

8. Specify delivery options

1. Recipient of the completed evaluation:

   Indicate who the evaluation report should be sent to. This is usually your future university or your college coach.

2. Select the institution:

   Select the name of your future university from the list or enter the data manually.

3. Provide a contact person:

   Provide the name of a contact person in the Admission Office or your coach.
