ACLAS: Is this even legal?

[openair]

I've never heard of a Canadian university asking for a foreign credential evaluation for a US degree and the idea seems outlandish. Canadians are used to recognizing American equivalencies pretty directly, in education and in general. A Canadian university will accept US RA and some Canadian universities would consider US NA.

For example, my mother sent her transcript from the US RA university she started at to a Canadian university. The Canadian university granted transfer credit and she completed her degree there. There was no foreign credential evaluation.

Although there's a large market for foreign credential evaluations recognized in Canada, they're all or materially all for credentials from third countries like India.

It's true. This would not normally be requested for American university graduates, real university graduates.
