How do I convert my UK (British) qualifications over to the American equivalent? Anybody know any decent companies?

Hi guys

Okay, so here's the situation: I'm currently waiting for my AOS to go through and receive my EAD, etc.

I've already enrolled preliminarily on a real estate course (I used to do this in Britain). I didn't go to university because I was lucky enough to land my job when I was 17 and still in college.

I have my GCSEs, an NVQ 2 and an NVQ3. All the other qualifications are field-specific and can't be converted over here because I have to study for real estate all over again. I know they're hardly amazing qualifications to convert but they'll be enough for me to complete my course. Could someone maybe share with me any companies and experiences they've had when they've done this themselves?

Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks!

Not property related but from memory when I did a couple of state qualifications all they wanted was High School Graduation and I just ticked yes.

If a certain body needs something more specific then usually they will say who they use.

Wes is one of the big ones.

Well, I sat O and A levels exams back home and I got credits for them when I enrolled in university in the US. Many schools will give you college credits for your GCSEs but it is not universal. As for companies over here, they generally don't care about them. I've never been asked about them though I've made it clear to some of my employers that I did sit and pass A-level courses.
