Degree Verification

• College degrees for individuals in faculty positions must be from a regionally accredited institution.
• All individuals selected for employment must provide an official copy of their university/college transcript(s) and certification(s). Applicants can have the school registrar's office send transcripts directly to the Human Resource office.
• Foreign Degrees: To be considered for employment with RCC, applicants who have obtained their education outside of the US and its territories must have their academic degree(s) validated, at their own expense, by an outside credential evaluation service as equivalent to the Baccalaureate or Master's degree conferred by a regionally accredited college or university in the United States.

Several agencies perform this specialized service. Contact the organization(s) directly for current information, procedure, and costs. The following NACES website provides a listing of current member organizations that can provide the foreign educational evaluation services.National Association of Credential Evaluation Services, Inc.
