Getting Credit for C.A.P.E & A- Levels

Did you know that your Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination grades and those from the Cambridge Advanced Level Examination can decrease the amount of time you spend at a college / university in the United States? All passing grades can be transfered to your university of choice. I received 18 credits and so I will be graduating one semester before my expected graduation date. Super cool! Some of my friends received enough credits to get an entire year off.

You must carefully select the courses that you would like to pursue at C.A.P.E or A- Levels. It is recommended that these courses be associated with your projected major at your future college / university or should be general so that they can count as core classes or general electives. Try not to choose courses that are completely different to your projected major as you may not be granted credit for them.

Now, when you have been accepted and you are certain that you will be going to a particular university, you should then send your C.A.P.E or A- Level results to the World Education Services (WES) to be evaluated. Your credentials (whether it is a transcript, certificate, diploma or degree)will be reviewed and compared to those of the United States. I recommend applying online to WES after which you should promptly mail certified copies of your academic credentials. I assure you that WES does a quick and accurate evaluation.
