Foreign Degrees in Chile
Chile uses different recognition routes depending on the country
in which the foreign credential was issued.
DEGREE RECOGNITION IN CHILE
The Applicable Route Depends on the Country of Origin
Chile maintains treaty-based recognition procedures for credentials from certain countries and separate revalidation procedures for credentials issued in other countries.
Because a Novaris degree is issued in the United States, applicants should review the foreign-degree revalidation route applicable through the Universidad de Chile rather than the treaty-based recognition procedure used for the countries specifically listed by Chilean authorities.
Recognition and apostille are different processes.
Authentication of the academic document does not by itself constitute
academic recognition or revalidation in Chile.
