Substantial equivalency
Substantial equivalency is a term used in the US to indicate that an overseas programme is essentially the same as a US programme of study.
CHEA (2002) defines it as:
Substantial Equivalency: (U.S.) Certification of a non-U.S. program based on a finding that it is in all essential respects the equivalent of similar programs in the United States and meets accepted quality standards. Usually operative in situations in which reciprocity agreements are not in place.
