WES is the best credential evaluator guys.. I have got evaluation done thrice(me and my siblings) from them in last 6 months.. each time it came back in around 20 days.. maximum time was of 27 days.. but still it's the fastest and most popular option.. trust them and don't get too impatient.. for any other issues you can email or tweet them..

My university sent the documents for bachelor & master together, so they probably review the documents by degree, not by "package".

Evaluation in Progress

Your evaluation is in progress. You are not required to do anything at this time.

When it says in the pending section your evaluation is in progress you are not required to do anything at this time. Does it mean they accepted the documents and has started the evaluation?
Did you hear back anything yet ?

Evaluation in Progress


Your evaluation is in progress. You are not required to do anything at this time.


It says Evaluation in Progress at the bottom, So I guess they have accepted the documents and now evaluating.

Is it 20 calendar days or business days?
Document sents: 21st February
Documents delivered: 23rd February
We received your document(s): 1st March
Hold status: 19th March. They Not-Accepted my degree transcript because I didn't send from University which actually issued. This is comment from WES:

  • Not Accepted | Details
Reason: The document was not received from the institution or the appropriate examining body that awarded the degree/diploma as required by WES.

Instructions: Please arrange for your academic documents to be sent directly to WES by the institution or examining body that awarded your degree/diploma.

I have contacted the issuing University to send the transcript directly to WES.

then what document did you send... it must have been a sealed envelope received from university... doesn't matter if you send it or university directly sends it... but should be unopened envelope

I sent sealed envelope as per WES. That wasn't the issue.

The issue was, let's say, I did my studies in University A for my degree. University A has partnership with University B which is in another country. Even though I did my degree in A (location wise), the degree was issued by University B. Since my diploma was from A, I took the easy route of getting attestation for both diploma and degree from University A.

WES didn't accept attestation from University A for transcript/marksheet of my degree. They basically said to get attestation from University B since they issued transcript.

WES accepted my other documents: Diploma Certificate, Diploma Transcript, and Degree Certificate.

I hope it is clear.

not sure what you thought.. it is always clear that transcript is to be issued from university which issues final diploma or degree.....
anyways i hope you will soon get transcript from correct university..

Wait for 3 days for status to update, and another 11-12 days for them to accept the documents.

Yes unfortunately, they'll need to start from 0 for your bachelor degree documents.
