Commission on Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools
Nursing credential evaluation and verification (USA)
A profession-specific body for internationally educated nurses seeking to work or be licensed in the USA.
How it generally works
- Focused on nurses; offers credential evaluation and verification services used by US state boards and employers.
- Requires documents and, often, verification directly from the school and licensing authority.
How your RGUHS documents fit in
In most cases you will need your transcript sent to CGFNS directly by the university, quoting your CGFNS reference number. Read the transcript guide and the credential-evaluation overview to prepare.
Always verify: Confirm current requirements and fees on the official CGFNS website. This page is independent guidance and is not affiliated with CGFNS or the university.
Not sure which document you actually need?
Start with the guides, or reach out and describe your situation. We will help you understand the process — the university remains the issuing authority for all official documents.
Independent documentation assistance for RGUHS graduates. Official academic documents are issued only by Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences.
