    My experience with WES was fantastic. The entire process was online, eliminating the need for manual mailing. Their platform is user-friendly, allowing me to upload documents and track my application easily. I appreciated their quality check service, where they verify documents directly with the school. The whole process took about a month, and I was kept informed every step of the way. Highly recommend WES for their efficient and reliable service!

    Overall WES helped me a lot in getting my Canadian equivalency and thankfully I got the same level of degree from my niversity in the Philippines and in Canada. WES’s over the phone customer service is just horrible, I guess they need to re evaluate how their people works for their clients, instead of making it easier for clients they made it even more difficult. Nevertheless I give credits where credit is due. WES as a company has been helping immigrants get their study equivalency and for that I am grateful!

    This company is a total rip off. They cannot be more incompetent. They received our information via Federal Express over 3 weeks ago and have not done a thing with it. The refuse to let you talk to any of their managers or anyone up the chain, (with the only exception of a 1st line manager whose job it is is to tell you there is absolutely no way you can talk to anyone else.) So you have no recourse except possibly a class action lawsuit. I have never seen a lower rating, ie: 98% negative! Wish I would have seen that before. Good luck if you are trying to enroll for September 2024.

    My experience with WES has been absolutely horrific. I completed a graduate degree in the UK, and I'm currently enrolled in another program in the U.S. They are in similar fields, and my current university said that some courses should transfer. Welp. My current university didn't notify me that they required an official foreign credential evaluation until about a month before the classes I was supposed to be waived from started. They told me I could use WES or one other service.

    I picked WES because it looked like a larger organization, which I associated with being more streamlined and easy to use (I was wrong.) I paid about $200 and submitted all of my documents electronically on 4/23, and the service I selected was to be completed in 7 business days according to the WES website. (Note that since my documents were submitted electronically, they were received on 4/23 right when I submitted them.)

    It is now 5/16 and WES has done absolutely nothing but take my money. I called them today to let them know that I need my results ASAP so that I do not have to pay thousands of dollars for courses I do not need. They gave me a bunch of crap about how they have 'received my documents' and 'they are reviewing them.' No they're not. They haven't been reading two pieces of paper for over 3 weeks, give me a break. Then the guy on the phone told me that they're 'busy' and 'everything is delayed.' Cool, I don't care. It's already been delayed multiple weeks. A few days I could understand, but I selected a service that had a 7 day turnaround for a reason. This is false advertising at this point.

    The WES customer service rep then had me submit an online request for my evaluation to be 'expedited' through the 'help' function on the website that I am 2 million percent sure will be ignored. Also, someone should give the staff at WES a vocabulary lesson, because being several weeks late is not expedited. I hate this organization. Bad wishes to everyone involved with them.

    It took WES 10 weeks to complete their course by course review service even though they obtained the transcript within a couple business days electronically. I assume the advertised 8 day turnaround only applies to people who are compelled to purchase the add on expedited service after the seemingly endless delays. Fortunately the college that I applied to does not play that game and made an admissions decision based on my original transcript alone. I only need the WES report for a credential which comes much later.

    I submitted my application to WES in 2018. They made major mistakes and refused to make corrections. One of the courses was put as "Architectural Engineering" instead of "Artificial Intelligence". Though I raised the issue, it was never corrected as they said it was final. Another huge red flag was that many of the courses had random grades assigned. I will never ever use their service and would not recommend.

    I recently utilized WES's transcript evaluation service, and unfortunately, it was an incredibly disappointing experience from start to finish. Not only did they fail to deliver on their promises, but their customer service was abysmal. Firstly, the evaluation process took much longer than advertised, causing significant delays in my plans. Despite their website claiming a specific turnaround time, it took weeks longer to receive any communication or updates on my evaluation status.

    Secondly, when I attempted to reach out to their customer service team for clarification and assistance, I was met with nothing but frustration. The representatives were unhelpful, lacked basic knowledge about the process, and seemed disinterested in resolving my issues. Moreover, the quality of the evaluation itself was questionable. There were numerous errors and inconsistencies in the report, which cast doubt on the competence and thoroughness of their evaluation team. Overall, my experience with WES was nothing short of a nightmare. I would strongly advise anyone considering their services to look elsewhere. The lack of professionalism, poor communication, and subpar quality make them entirely unreliable and unworthy of trust.

    I used WES back in 2012 when I went to college as an international student in Spain. Ever since 2017 I have been working as a US scholarship agent and I have had students use WES' services in some occasions. Only thing I can say at this very moment is that I will no longer use their services again. Not only have they been slow and incompetent every single time I have worked with them, but they have also provided almost no explanation at all for their delay, always hiding behind the same excuse: there is too much work volume. Just as an example, I have been working with a student this year who sent his transcripts over to WES in February. He paid extra for the 5 business day evaluation. To this day, May 10th, he has not yet received the evaluation and he needs to be in the US in less than 3 months. I think I said enough with that.

    WES is NOT RELIABLE when it comes to receive the evaluation reports that you PAY EXTRA for and their CUSTOMER SERVICE is very NEGLIGENT. The first time my report was supposedly sent out was 01/18/2024 and by March as I haven't received anything I reached out, the CS Agent was very unprofessional and rude and basically told me that I needed to call to complain before, not over a month after as if it was my mistake (when the website even says delivery can take long and that's the reason why I waited long enough) that they had no idea what happened with my report; they did not have a tracking number or anything to actually know where my report was or what happened. I demanded for a second attempt since I had already paid for my report and I had to pay again for the new delivery order, I sent the payment on 04/04/2024 after re-confirming my address was correct as it was the first time.

    Today is 05/06/2024 and still no report has been received and when I called the CS Agent said she could see I paid for the delivery back in April but the report was never sent out, that she was going to escalate the issue so it could be sent. At this point still, nobody has ever even said they are sorry for the inconvenience as they are clearly very incompetent but mostly negligent and I have no idea when my report will be sent and if I am finally going to receive it. Cherry on top, they DO NOT give you your money back so if you don't keep fighting with them you just lose it.

    This company is a borderline scam, I am shocked they are still accredited by AICE. It took them 3 weeks to even look for the documents I sent them, despite me calling and messaging them several times to inquire why they have not started processing the documents. When they finally did look for the documents I sent them, they claimed they never received them. This to 100% untrue. It took me several more phone calls with WES to finally have them agree to give me a refund, and even then they took a $20 'service fee' for issuing the refund. Absolutely infuriating. I then used the AICE certified company Ucredo for my accreditation needs. Ucredo finished my accreditation in only a few days, and was less expensive than WES while actually accomplishing the service. Avoid WES at all costs.

    DO NOT USE WES. They fraudulently indicate on their website that they can process your file within 7 biz days of receiving all of your documents. They had ours for well over 25 business days and did absolutely nothing. We had to employ a separate service provider - Josef ** - who was EXCELLENT TO WORK WITH - USE THEM! WES seemingly has no staff, no one in customer service could help us, no supervisors to talk to us and now they want to keep a $50 USD cancellation fee for DOING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. We had a terrible experience with them - their website lies about their ability to provide this service on a timely basis. DO NOT USE THEM. No one in customer service can help you.

    I am very disappointed in the (dis)service WES has done to me and my job application. I sent my application for evaluation on the 21st of March 2024, knowing that I needed my evaluation before the end of April 2024. I uploaded my certificate, and my institution sent my transcript electronically to WES by the 29th of March, 2024. My WES account showed that my evaluation is in progress and that I am not required to do anything. This has been on my page since the 21st of March, 2024, only for WES to tell me that they did not have my transcript when I called to inquire about progress with my evaluation. Just imagine if I had not called to find out about my application. WES kept blaming my institution, insisting on more than two occasions that they had not received my documents. When I confirmed with my institution, my document was sent to WES on the 29th of March, 2024. Right now, I stand a chance of losing my job offer since it is conditioned on my evaluation. I called to complain, and the WES representative hung up on me. How am I supposed to be a happy and satisfied customer?

    My experience with WES has been nothing short of a nightmare. I started my course by course evaluation in the beginning of March, having had my university send in my transcript to WES via postal mail. Up until the end of March nothing changed in my status even though WES promised to deliver results within 8 business days. I sent multiple inquiries about my status and they all went unanswered up for a whole week until the point that WES decides to put my status on hold because apparently the transcripts are missing. I get in touch with customer service via the phone and they informed me that WES did receive postal mail for my case in the middle of March but apparently did nothing with that and no one was able to tell me what exactly they had received either. I only get excuses that they are apparently changing their IT infrastructure and that this is the reason why everything has been taking so long.

    Fast forward a whole week trying to escalate my case with customer service because I have been waiting 1.5 months now, my university contacts me stating they made a mistake in the transcripts, saying they resent it to WES via Email at submit@wes.org according to their own blog post about how to submit transcripts via email. I call customer service to confirm that they have received the email, instead the associate tries to tell me that she cannot verify the information FROM THEIR OWN BLOG POST saying that I have to have my institution make a partnership with them, which would undoubtedly mean several weeks of delay again considering how slow they are to respond to anything.

    I am completely fed up with their incompetence and cancel my evaluation on the same day and lo and behold, suddenly my status changes to In progress, if they are considering the correct transcripts, only God knows… I call customer service saying I still want the cancellation making sure they don’t complete the evaluation before looking at my cancellation request and then conveniently saying ‘Sorry no refunds for completed evaluations’. Customer service guarantees me that won’t happen. Still I receive an email saying exactly that, even though my evaluation still says ‘In progress’.

    I can’t even directly answer the customer service representative via email and have to go through another contact form. I paid $300 for WES to completely waste my time and exhaust my nerves. They are an absolute rip off and should be reported for their incompetence and at this point maybe even fraudulent conduct about not letting me cancel my evaluation.

    Worst Customer Service ever! Very hard to reach them - no email. If you call them, they will ask you to fill out the web based "Contact Us" form. It doesn't work as it always shows error message no matter which web browser you use (Chrome, Mozilla, Edge, etc.). If you don't fill out the form, they will not take your case. But you cannot fill out the form as it will show error messages. So you will remain at an impasse like I have been for several days now! My case is left unresolved. I have a very tight timeline to send my course evaluation to a graduate school, but I somehow lost access to my records. WES Customer Service wouldn't help me without filling out the damn form I described above. As a customer, I was looking for a solution, which apparently they are failing to provide.

    I was obliged to use WES as it is partnered with SOPHAS for online applications to Public Health programs in the US. I have a foreign diploma from a university in the UK. The transcript was received in early April 2024. I was given a completion date of April 24, which came and passed. Three phone call to determine what is going on. No information given as to when the document will complete whatever evaluation is actually taking place and be sent to the program. I was told twice that my transcript would be escalated due to the approaching deadline of May 1. This is in fact a misleading statement.

    Well, what to say? I simply lost a deadline for some doctorate programs because WES did not respect its deadlines. At this moment, it's been 20 working days since WES acknowledged my official transcripts and set the status to "In Progress". Their estimated time for a Course-by-Course evaluation is 8 working days, it's been 20 and till now, I have zero information.

    I was required to use an equivalency service by Kelly Education for a Canadian university to covert to a U.S. equivalency (ludicrous to me..). The time it took to process my transcript, once received, was too long. All that was required was to verify the degree type to a U.S. degree. The application was submitted on 3/20/24 and took weeks to "review" the transcript and then on the website it said it was sent out via "standard delivery" on 4/5/24. As of 4/18, I still have not received this and I do NOT understand why there is no email or digital option. I called on 4/18/24 and the CX person said "standard delivery" to WES = up to 30 days. Though he also said it should be USPS, which is a 3 day mailing time.

My school was delayed in providing degree related information. After informing WES of the situation, they told me I could submit a verification letter as proof that I was awarded the degree. My WES account was now also on hold and I had to pay an additional amount for my account to be re-activated before I could attempt to submit documents. I followed the suggestion to submit the verification letter, however my submission was repeatedly rejected despite being told to do so.

    The letter was finally accepted in late 2023 and the evaluation was completed shortly after. Following this, I received my copy in the mail, however, problems continued. My copy had errors. It seems my original grades were simply duplicated on my transcript evaluation instead of being higher as per a partial evaluation of courses done previously by WES in my first request. I queried this discrepancy.

    Subsequently, I got emails stating that my query was reviewed and a copy would be re-sent to me. I.e with the corrected grade equivalency and GPA. I should have received my copy in January of 2024. Obviously I didn’t. It was over 30 days now and I had called WES several times but was constantly told/asked to wait. I was told that if 30 days had passed without receipt, I could submit a message using the contact us feature on my WES account.

    30 days passed and I eventually got an email stating that my copy was undeliverable and had been returned to WES. I’ve since been trying to clarify my next steps because I would like my copy of my evaluation that I paid for!! After approximately 4 (or more) phone calls, and a few query submissions, WES’s stance is that I have to pay shipping fees in order to get my copy. I was told that they have no control over the shipping agency, (as though I also do) and all I’d have to pay is $12 which is only a re-send fee. Apparently, this is much reduced since they were going to charge $145 for the whole process again.

    Firstly, if they didn’t mess up my evaluation, I wouldn’t need to get it redone. Secondly, I’m not responsible for their shipping issues. The representative said I could choose for it to be expedited, however that was not an option when I was paying for the order, neither the first time nor second time. Why must the customer also be charged extra in order to have a ‘secure’ service. The mail is only going from Canada to the USA! Not any other party of the world where tracking is usually not available. Thirdly, the evaluation which contained the errors was successfully delivered to my address, indicating that there’s no problem with my address. Fourthly, even considering charging me all over again for the whole order is ridiculous!

    Last but absolutely not least, WES made no good effort in properly communicating with me aside from emails which I cannot reply to. If they did, this situation would never have reached this far and I would not have had to bear the cost/s for their errors. I ended up paying the shipping fee and still my account has not been updated since checked a few minutes ago. Although I prefer to have no future business with WES, unfortunately, I may need to order copies of my evaluated transcript for future employment or academic pursuits. This was an extremely unpleasant experience! Most disappointing was the fact that regardless of the representatives saying sorry, I was given only one choice every time I called them, which was to pay additional fees.

Their response was that I needed to place a new order because my evaluation had been sent back to them. I believe they are intentionally doing this to extract extra money from us.

I filed a very simple accreditation request, that they took months for to even answer. You can not reach them and it takes a week to get a reply to a very simple answer. After trying everything to get the service done, they suddenly cancelled my file without my permission, only refunding part of my (big!) fee. I have never used the word thief for others before, but in this case there is no other way.

    Difficult working with them. They are very particular for how they want the academic records to be sent to them. Even if it’s from a well known Australian university. All the documents per their requirements have to be sent within 180 days, or they will deactivate your account. And you have to pay extra fee to reactivate your application. This was not stated on the application page. Only in their terms and policies. They also won’t provide any update on your case until you pay the extra reactivation fee. Impossible to contact them - impossible to reach them by phone, email will take them ages to reply. Overall a very negative and scammy experience. It seems businesses these days try every possible way to reap you off. I work in IT. Press a button to “activate” costs $52? And it’s a non profit organization? Wow.

They will not inform you of additional documents that you need to submit until you’ve submitted what you thought is all the documents and then another 7 days will go by before they respond and tell you there’s something else you need to do.

    I applied for credential evaluation on 10/10 because this is the service required by the Board of Law Examiners, where I am trying to practice law. After my documents were verified by a WES partner (Qualification Check) on 11/28, I submitted translations on the same date. Because there was no change in the status of my evaluation, I sent an inquiry on 12/6, which they replied on 12/7, asking for the same documents I submitted on 11/28. I, again, uploaded the SAME DOCUMENTS on 12/7.

    Today, 12/19, I sent a second inquiry to know the status, and again, they are requesting the same documents for the second time. At this point, I would be uploading the transcripts for the third time, but my deadline will not be met, and I will probably not be able to transfer my score because of the inefficiency of this service.

    If you can get an evaluation from any other service, please save time, headaches, and frustration by avoiding this company. As for me, they destroyed my possibility of practicing law in the US. I will need to start everything again and sit for the bar exam again. RUN AS FAST AND FAR AS YOU CAN FROM THIS COMPANY!!! Oh!

    Whoever has reviewed the WES as an exemplary organization, here's what I believe is happening:

    1. WES pay people to provide "Fake 5 star reviews".

    2. This organization has monopolized its position and connection to educational institutions in scamming students into paying large sums of money, but either not completing the process or not providing adequate information and followup for the application process.

    Everyone leaving reviews of this organization here should read the Better Business Bureau reviews and complaints filed against this organization in the last 3 years. I write this review from experience. The University I attended outside the United States provided the degree certificate and mark sheet as per the WES guidelines because they have gone through this process with other students. WES does not provide reasons the marksheets are not accepted except that they are incomplete which is a lie because the University has provided the marksheets twice to this scam organization upon my request. You do not get any follow up from customer support apart from an arbitrary email when you speak with them. They claim a 'reviewer' (that's a joke) will respond within 24 hours.

    6 months have gone by and my application is still pending. No one has contacted or provided WHY the marksheets were not accepted. But I do know why they were not accepted and my Degree for the same was accepted. Because NO ONE REVIEWS the records. I urge all international students to contact your country's embassy or consulate to provide you with a legitimate organization that will evaluate your educational records and have a proven track record of doing so.

    Also check out BBB (Better Business Bureau) reviews which show how many complaints have been officially filed against this scam organization. WES has been in business for too long and have monopolized their position as the only organization that does this sort of accreditation if they do it properly. I fervently hope a Canadian government organization reads these reviews because this organization needs to be shut down in totality.

All degrees are lumped together. Say you decide to pursue a master's in engineering, your Engineering school will also get a report of your Anthropology grades. Explaining to them that all BA's are not the same is a hurdle. It does not matter what your major was. If you have a BA in Zoology and a BA in medicine, they would all lump together!

When you call them, they don’t give you any information about your application, they put at the website "we giving the report and the assessment by 7 days" and they lie. My advice to everyone if he/she wants to use this organization make sure to read all the reviews because it's the worse organization in the world.

    WES Provided me a solid and reliable assessment experience. I didn't feel any anxiety throughout the process because of their quick evaluation app. And surprisingly I got better results than I expected. The overall transaction was so smooth they even did some things manually for me, the only thing I did was email them. It was one of the best services I acquired throughout my years. Thank you WES.

    If I could put 0 stars I would do it. More than a month and a half ago I received the evaluation of my credentials (the electronic version that says unofficial) but as of August 14, I still have not received it via mail. I have written and called, and they informed me that I had to wait 30 working days. The 30 working days have passed and nothing. The customer service is terrible. There is no one to solve anything. They all say the same thing, that I have to keep waiting. Until when?

    WES was recommended to me by both an employer and an immigration consultant. I was a bit reluctant because their services were a bit expensive, but in the end, I decided to go through with them. After they received my documents which I had sent by mail, everything happened very quickly. Even though the estimated time for my evaluation was 4 weeks, I got the results within days.

    I went ahead and chose WES because my previous university already had experience with WES. I started contacting my university, then started my application with WES, then in less than 2 weeks my evaluation was finished. I had a little difficulty while filing up the application, but on the next day I found out that the "NEXT" button was all the way down, and after that I finished my application just fine. From there, it was very smooth, with no issue at all. Thank you WES!!

    My experience with WES during the evaluation of my qualifications was impressive in terms of the application process simplicity and customer service. The application portal is robust and rich in information - what I can describe as "self service" made extremely simple. The team that handled my application was very professional in the way they attended to my inquiries and giving me constant progress report at every milestone achieved. The final step after notification of completion came with a surprise package- the Credly's Badge, which is an additional value from WES. I am pleased to recommend WES to any individual who is desirous of a credible credential evaluation source. It was a business well worth my money and time.

    I had my transcript evaluated by them. The completed evaluation did not make it to my school. When I submit a ticket asking about my evaluation, the responses I got seems like they are autogenerated and not answering the questions I am inquiring. It takes 3 days after I sent an inquiry through their website and you can't reply to that response they sent. You have to keep going thru the website and like opening a new ticket every time but for the same inquiry?

    I spent almost $200 for the evaluation that I can't seem to make it to where I need it to (which is my school). And they want me to upgrade my evaluation and pay another $83 so they can send me a "certified" electronic copy of my transcript. I don't think schools accept transcripts coming from the student?!? These needs to come directly from institutions. Don't waste your money. Try another evaluation company. They are not responsive at all. I keep getting the runaround for my issues.

    I am very disappointed in World Education Services. I made my initial payment on May 20th. They send me an email that I was $0.10 short, I went back again to the bank and paid $1.00 for the 10 cents. To this day 07/24/23 I still haven’t been cleared of the 10 cents. I have called countless times and made 3 tickets and still nothing has been done. It's been 2 months. I have asked for an email to provide my proof of payment they y give any, I have asked to speak to a supervisor. They do not allow that either.

    After I had a nightmare getting the transcripts from my country (another headache between the request and paying FedEx) to bring them to USA. Open the “famous” envelop because WES even knowing that are documents that are NOT in English, that I had to submit them to a certified place to be translated (and pay more $$), and then (I thought) I was finally done and submit them through the website..and then wait, and wait, and wait and got suspended of my job.

    I called to ask what was going on.. the representative explained me that now I had to mail the “famous” envelope with the original transcripts.. but they were in Spanish!! But the envelope was opened for me..So what??? I had to ask to ANOTHER ORIGINAL TRANSCRIPTS IN MY COUNTRY, PAY FEDEX AGAIN $270 and finally mail it to Canada.. :0/ .. I was scared thinking that something else could happen.. but no! I was told that the results would be ready in 2 weeks and it took only 1 week. I was notified by e-mail. I was/am happy.

    WES' work is very good. Between the time of receipt of my documents from my institution and the decision of the evaluation, it happened just a few days. The process was easy to understand, the web base and the application base platforms are user-friendly, and therefore the document review time and the overall process time were very reasonable. The big difficulty lies in the response of the institutions issuing the documents. However, if these are the institutions that send the transcripts, for WES to contact them again to receive confirmation of all the papers seems to be a way to lengthen the procedure. Apart from these delay items, WES made a fair assessment based on the global standard.
