Grade points, GPA and CGPA
Malaysian university transcripts list each course with credits, a letter grade and grade points, and a GPA for each semester and a cumulative CGPA. Scales differ between universities, so we translate the one printed. Universiti Malaya's published scheme is an example: A+ (90 to 100 marks) and A (80 to 89.99) are both 4.00, A- is 3.70, B+ 3.30, B 3.00, B- 2.70, C+ 2.30 and C 2.00, while C- (45 to 49.99) is 1.70 and already counts as a fail, as do D+, D and F.
A 4.00 on a Malaysian transcript is not a US GPA, and a C- that is a fail in Malaysia may look like a pass to a US reader. We do not convert anything; that is an evaluator's job. See credential evaluation translations and the Malaysian university diploma page. Any pass/fail or exemption marks are translated with the meaning the transcript's own key gives them.
English, Malay and the attestation chain
Many Malaysian universities print transcripts in English, and an English transcript needs no translation. Where course titles, notes or stamps are in Malay, we translate them and keep course codes, credits and grades in their original columns, so the evaluator can check each line against the original. If the transcript has a grading key on the back, we translate it too, since it tells the evaluator how that university's scale works.
Malaysia is not a party to the Apostille Convention. For use abroad, Wisma Putra attests educational certificates only after the Ministry of Education, Ministry of Higher Education or Department of Education has endorsed them with a name, position and stamp. USCIS does not require this, and most evaluators do not either; ask yours. See our Malay page. Ask before starting that chain, as it takes time.
What USCIS requires
Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), a foreign-language document must be accompanied by a complete English translation and the translator's certification that it is accurate. Every seal, stamp and marginal note is part of the document, so every one is translated.
State agencies set their own rules — see government agencies — and what our certification states is on this page.
How it works
Upload a photo or a scan of your document, pick the language pair and check out online. You never have to mail originals: a legible copy is all we need.
A professional human translator, never machine translation, translates the document word for word and mirrors the layout of the original. Every certified translation ships with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy that meets the requirements of USCIS, courts and universities.
Your translation is delivered digitally, usually within 24 hours for documents of one to three pages, and same-day delivery is available. If anything needs adjusting, we revise it.
Certified vs. standard translation
A certified translation is a word-for-word translation accompanied by a signed statement attesting to its accuracy and completeness. It is what official bodies require: USCIS, courts, universities and government agencies. Certified translations are $24.95 per page, where one sheet of your document is one page, with no word cap.
A standard translation is the same professional human translation without the certificate, for when you only need to understand the content or for internal or informal use. It is billed at the same $24.95 per page with no word cap.
Frequently asked questions
Will you convert my CGPA to a US GPA?
No. We translate it as printed; a credential evaluator converts it.
My transcript is in English.
Then it needs no translation, unless a stamp or note is in Malay.
Why do A+ and A have the same points?
At Universiti Malaya both are 4.00. We keep the grade and points exactly as printed.
Is acceptance by universities, colleges and schools guaranteed?
Yes. Our certified translations are guaranteed to be accepted by universities, colleges and schools in the United States — and by USCIS, the NVC, courts, government agencies and employers — or your money back. The guarantee covers the translation itself, not the original document or the admission decision, and it covers credential evaluation agencies such as WES and ECE as well. Full terms are in our refund policy.
