Sample translation: a Congolese secondary school transcript
This is what an order looks like when it is delivered, with a fictitious student. The PDF starts with the signed certification page, and the translation follows the original line for line: every abbreviation is explained, stamps, seals and signatures are noted in brackets, and the grid stays the same, so an admissions officer or a credential evaluator can match it without guessing.
What to notice
- Two school years in the same grid as the original: every subject, grading period, exam and total, so each grade can be read against its maximum.
- The French rating abbreviations are translated (TB becomes VG, Very good), and every abbreviation is explained in a translator's note at the foot of the same page, including one the original never defines.
- Dates are written the US way (the original's 02/07/2015 is February 7, 2015).
- The photo, seals and signatures are noted in brackets where they appear.

Amarillo College requirements in detail
Translation
A professionally translated copy of the foreign high school transcript, with all coursework translated and the graduation date (Foreign student checklist and approved agencies (PDF, actx.edu)).
Who may translate
A professional translator; Amarillo College accepts eVerbary's certified translations (Foreign student checklist and approved agencies (PDF, actx.edu)).
Instead of a translation
A copy of an approved agency's summary report that rates the foreign coursework equal to a US diploma and shows the graduation date (Foreign student checklist and approved agencies (PDF, actx.edu)).
Foreign college credit
Optional: a copy of a course-by-course evaluation from an approved agency; a summary evaluation can serve for TSI only, and English credit typically does not transfer (Foreign student checklist and approved agencies (PDF, actx.edu)).
Approved agencies
WES, FCSA, GCE, SDR, IACEI, ECE, SpanTran (The Evaluation Company) and Educational Perspectives; ask registrar@actx.edu about others (Foreign student checklist and approved agencies (PDF, actx.edu)).
F-1 students
Amarillo College does not issue I-20s for F-1 study (International students).
Where it goes
Copies go to the Registrar's Office before advising and registration (Foreign student checklist and approved agencies (PDF, actx.edu)).
Three ways to show you finished high school abroad
Amarillo College's foreign student checklist gives three options for students who have not attended college, or who want financial aid: a professionally translated copy of the foreign high school transcript that includes all coursework and the graduation date; a copy of an approved agency's summary evaluation that rates the coursework equal to a US diploma; or a US accredited high school transcript or GED.
Students who also attended a US college send official transcripts from it, unless they are not seeking a degree.
The checklist is written for students who live in the US: the college does not issue I-20s (international students), and it notes that permanent residents and undocumented students may apply for financial aid and scholarships.
Copies are accepted, so you keep your original high school diploma and transcript.
Credit for college courses taken abroad
Foreign college work is optional.
If you want it counted, Amarillo College asks for a copy of a course-by-course evaluation from an approved agency, and a summary evaluation is enough only for TSI placement (Foreign student checklist and approved agencies (PDF, actx.edu)).
The checklist names the report to order from each agency, for example WES "Course by Course" or ECE "Course by Course" for credit, and WES "Document by Document" or ECE "General" for high school.
The college also warns that some agencies do not translate and may need the transcript translated before they evaluate it, and it suggests checking which agencies your future four-year university accepts (Foreign student checklist and approved agencies (PDF, actx.edu)).
Evaluated credit must show as the academic equivalent of an AC course to transfer, and courses noted as upper-level cannot count toward the core curriculum (Foreign student checklist and approved agencies (PDF, actx.edu)).
Questions about a transfer evaluation go to the Registrar's Office (transfer students).

Documents applicants usually translate
- Foreign high school transcript, with every course and the graduation date
- High school diploma or leaving certificate
- College or university transcripts, for the course-by-course evaluation
- Course descriptions, when the registrar asks for them
What an eVerbary translation includes
- A complete English translation of every page, stamps, seals and handwritten notes included, laid out like the original so each line can be matched.
- Grades exactly as recorded, with the grading scale the document prints. We never convert marks to a US GPA.
- A signed certificate of translation accuracy on letterhead, with our contact details, delivered as a PDF you can upload.
- $24.95 per page with no word cap, certification included; 24 hours for one to three pages as standard. Regular clients who need it can get delivery in as little as 30 minutes, on request.
Uploading the translation to Amarillo College
Send the translated transcript, or the agency report, to the Registrar's Office (registrar@actx.edu); Amarillo College accepts copies and lets you keep originals (Foreign student checklist and approved agencies (PDF, actx.edu)).
After that come TSI testing if you are not exempt, advising and registration.
eVerbary delivers a signed PDF of the certified translation; on request we can also email it directly to the registrar.
What we do not do
eVerbary is a translation service, not a credential evaluation service: we do not issue evaluations, US equivalencies or GPA conversions, and we cannot send documents on behalf of the school that issued them.
For Amarillo College that means we translate your foreign transcript and diploma; the summary or course-by-course evaluation, if you choose it or want college credit, comes from one of the listed agencies.
How to order
- Scan or photograph every page of the document, front and back, including any stamps on the reverse.
- Upload it, choose the language and "certified", and see the price before paying.
- Receive the PDF, usually within 24 hours for one to three pages, and upload it with the copy of the original wherever the institution asks for it.
