WES Tools

We want to help you achieve your goals. That’s why we offer free tools to help you succeed. These tools are resources to guide and empower you on your journey. Use them as often as you like to make the college application and immigration process easier.

Degree Equivalency

See how your credentials compare to Canadian standards instantly with this tool. Just select the country or territory in which you studied, enter your credentials, and we will show your degree equivalency. The Degree Equivalency tool doesn’t replace an official evaluation, but it will give you an idea of what your degree is equivalent to in Canada.

Required Documents

Once you have submitted your application, you can directly upload some documents (translations and degree certificates) by logging in to My Account. Your institution is responsible for sending all other document types directly to WES.
