When grades are assigned by faculty members from a host institution using that institution's grading scale, equivalency scales may be used to translate the grades to U.S.-based grades. However, equivalency scales (such as https://www.scholaro.com/gpa-calculator/) will only be used when a host institution has a course articulation agreement and MOU with KSU and if an evaluation has been completed prior to the start of the program. Otherwise, transcripts from a host institution must be officially evaluated by an authorized services such as WES.",
