The general secondary certificate
Saudi students finish three years of secondary school, normally between 15 and 18, and receive the general secondary education certificate (shahadat al-thanawiya al-amma) from the Ministry of Education. Grades are percentages; SACM, the Saudi Arabian Cultural Mission in the US, lists 75 to 89 as very good, 60 to 74 as good and 50 to 59 as a pass. Technical schools issue their own industrial, commercial and agricultural diplomas.
Saudi universities retrieve applicants' school records directly from the ministry's Noor system rather than asking for paper. We translate each subject and its percentage exactly as printed. A US school will want a copy of the certificate and grade sheet, so request them from your school before you apply. We translate the certificate and the grade sheet together. See our Arabic page.
Qudrat, Tahsili and the weighted percentage
Saudi university admission adds two national tests run by Qiyas, part of the Education and Training Evaluation Commission: the aptitude test (Qudrat) and the achievement test (Tahsili). Universities combine them with the school grade into a weighted percentage; Northern Border University, for example, uses 30% school, 30% Qudrat and 40% Tahsili for science programmes. A US school may ask for those score reports too; each is translated as its own document.
Saudi Arabia joined the Apostille Convention in December 2022, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs issues apostilles. Its apostilles can be checked on the ministry's online search, and an apostille in Arabic is translated as part of the document. USCIS does not require one; ask the school or evaluator before ordering one. See the Saudi academic transcript page and credential evaluation translations.
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
My certificate shows a percentage, not a GPA.
Saudi secondary grades are percentages. We translate them as printed; an evaluator converts them.
Do I need my Qudrat and Tahsili results?
Only if the school asks. We translate each score report separately.
Do you translate the track (scientific or theoretical)?
Yes. The track is part of the certificate and is translated.
