Hello community! I have been doing some research about how to validate my college studies in another country (USA), but I don't know where to start looking for answers. If someone had done this in the past and can provide some advice, it would be really helpful.

Thank you in advance.

Can you provide a little more information on what you're trying to accomplish? American colleges and universities have a document called a transcript that they can provide as a record of classes taken, grades received, etc. You can contact the school for the transcript.

Validate those studies for employers? For your current university/future education in terms of having taken coursework? or in terms of transferring credits? As @bstar mentions: a transcript is proof of grades and coursework. If what you want is for your credits to count toward something else in your home country/at your home institution, you would need to work through that institution's pathways, and factors beyond the country of study would come into play.
