WES Evaluation Report Sample Overview
This resource explains what a WES evaluation report sample may look like for China credentials, including U.S. equivalency summary, course-by-course pages and evaluation terms.
What is a WES Evaluation Report?
A WES evaluation report is a credential evaluation report that compares academic credentials from another country with a destination country's education system. For China credentials, supporting degree, transcript and verification documents may be required before the report can be completed.
Who Needs This?
WES applicants with China credentials
Applicants who studied in China and need a credential evaluation for immigration, study, employment or licensing.
U.S., Canada and New Zealand users
People preparing WES or similar reports for universities, employers, immigration agencies or professional bodies.
Students preparing documents
Applicants who need CHSI or CSSD verification reports, transcripts, translations and account submission guidance.
Document reviewers
Schools, employers and consultants comparing WES summary and course-by-course report formats.

WES Evaluation Terms Sample
Credential
Identifies the academic qualification reviewed, such as a degree, diploma or graduation credential.
U.S. or Canadian Equivalency
Shows the educational comparison determined by WES for the destination system; the wording varies by credential and assessment.
Institution Status
Describes how the issuing institution is recognized within the relevant education system.
Major
Lists the field of study or academic specialization associated with the evaluated credential.
Length of Study
Records the normal or completed duration of the academic program considered in the evaluation.
Year Awarded
States the year in which the credential was officially conferred or completed.
Admission Requirements
Summarizes the prior education generally required to enter the evaluated program.
Credential and Degree Equivalency
The credential field identifies what WES reviewed, while the equivalency field records WES's comparison with the destination education system. Similar-looking Chinese qualifications do not automatically receive the same result because institutions, programs, study histories and supporting documents can differ. For a broader overview of academic document certification, read our China Degree Certification Guide.
Institution Status and Program Details
Institution status provides context about the issuing school, while program details help identify the qualification evaluated. WES may rely on submitted academic records and approved verification sources when reviewing these details. If you need Chinese degree or transcript verification, visit our China Degree & Transcript Verification Service page.
Major, Study Length and Graduation Information
Major describes the field of study, length of study records the program duration, and year awarded identifies when the credential was conferred. Admission requirements may explain the prior education normally expected for entry. These fields should be read together rather than used individually to predict an equivalency.
Common WES Evaluation Results for Chinese Degrees
WES reports for Chinese degrees may use different credential descriptions, equivalency wording and program details based on the institution, qualification, study length and records reviewed. There is no single result that applies to every Chinese degree. The samples on this page demonstrate report structure only and should not be treated as guaranteed outcomes.
Important Notes About WES Report Samples
- Use samples to understand layout, terminology and report fields, not to predict an individual result.
- Document-by-document and course-by-course reports may contain different sections and levels of detail.
- WES determines the final evaluation based on the credentials and supporting records submitted.
- Current document and delivery requirements should be confirmed in the applicant's own WES account.

Common Mistakes
Choosing the wrong report type
A document-by-document report may not satisfy schools or licensing bodies that need course-by-course analysis.
Missing CHSI or CSSD verification
China credentials often require official verification reports or specific delivery routes.
Incomplete transcript package
Transcript pages, translation, grading explanations and verification data must match the agency instructions.
Assuming every evaluator is the same
WES, ECE, IQAS and other agencies can have different document rules.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Global Attest affiliated with WES?
No. Global Attest is an independent document support provider and is not affiliated with WES.
Can Global Attest guarantee a WES result?
No. The final evaluation result is decided by WES. Global Attest helps prepare and coordinate China documents to reduce avoidable mistakes.
Do I need CHSI or CSSD reports for WES?
Many China credential cases involve CHSI or CSSD verification, but exact requirements depend on your education background and WES instructions.
What information is included in a WES evaluation report?
A WES evaluation report may include the credential name, institution, institution status, major or field of study, study length, year awarded, admission requirements and the equivalency determined by WES. A course-by-course report may also show individual subjects, credits, grades and a calculated grade-point average. The exact fields depend on the report type and credentials evaluated. Applicants should read the report together with its notes, terms and delivery information.
Will every Chinese degree receive the same WES equivalency?
No. WES evaluates each credential using the institution, program, level of study, admission requirements, graduation status, documents submitted and applicable assessment policies. Two applicants with degrees from China may receive different equivalencies even when the qualification names appear similar. Differences in institution recognition, program structure, study length or supporting records can affect the report. A sample illustrates report layout and terminology only; it does not establish the result WES will assign to another credential.
Can I use a sample report to predict my own evaluation result?
No. A sample report can help you understand common sections, field labels and the presentation of an evaluation, but it cannot reliably predict your own result. WES reviews the specific institution, credential, program, dates, study length and supporting documents submitted for each applicant. Assessment policies and document requirements may also change. Use samples as reading aids only, and wait for the official WES evaluation before relying on an equivalency for immigration, admission, employment or licensing decisions.
Does WES evaluate both degree certificates and academic transcripts?
WES may review both a degree or graduation credential and the related academic transcript, depending on the country of education, credential and evaluation type. The degree document confirms the qualification awarded, while the transcript provides courses, grades, credits and study history. Some China cases may also require approved verification reports or direct document delivery. Applicants should follow the checklist in their own WES account because requirements can differ and a sample report does not replace current instructions.
How can I prepare my Chinese academic documents for WES?
Start by reviewing the document requirements shown for each credential in your WES account. Confirm whether WES requests the degree certificate, graduation certificate, complete transcript, certified translation, CHSI/CSSD verification or direct delivery from an institution or approved source. Check that names, dates and credential details are consistent across every record. Do not rely only on a sample report. Follow the specified submission method and monitor the account for status updates or requests for additional documents.
Is a WES sample an official report?
The samples are for reference only. Applicants must order their own report through WES and follow the current WES document instructions.
Can WES reports be used outside Canada?
Yes. WES reports may be used for U.S. study, employment, professional licensing, graduate admission and other credential recognition purposes when accepted by the receiving organization.
