Our community college is currently screening applicants for a computer science instructor. One of our applicants has a Masters Degree from Osmania University. While we are awaiting the applicant's transcripts, can anyone tell me about the validity of the credential? I understand that we will have to submit the applicant's transcript for a formal evaluation - I'm just looking for a quick read of India degrees v. US. Thanks!
