College of Coastal Georgia: Translation Requirements for Documents in Another Language

Worth knowing about Coastal Georgia

Coastal Georgia requirements in detail

What each evaluation agency asks for the translation

WES accepts a word-for-word translation by a professional translator or translation service, not by the applicant.

The Evaluation Company, which has a discounted custom application for Coastal Georgia (International student requirements), accepts outside translations only from translators certified by the American Translators Association (TEC); eVerbary can assign one on request.

ECE, another NACES member, accepts any complete, word-for-word translation. Athletes must use InCred for NAIA eligibility; check its translation rule before ordering.

Two deadlines and two kinds of report

Coastal Georgia separates the application deadline from the document deadline: for fall you apply by June 1 and the evaluations, transcripts and English scores must be in by July 1 (International student requirements).

Translation comes before the agency can start, so order it early.

Freshmen need a document-by-document report of the high school record with a GPA; transfers need course-by-course reports of every college, and those with fewer than 30 semester or 45 quarter hours add the high school report.

Documents applicants usually translate

• High school transcripts and diploma
• College or university transcripts, every course listed
• Degree certificates
• Bank statements for the financial documentation, if not in English

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 of up to 250 words, 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 Coastal Georgia

• The translation goes to the agency with your records.

  Transcripts, evaluations and English scores must reach Coastal Georgia directly by electronic exchange, by email to admissions@ccga.edu or by mail to the Office of Admissions, One College Drive, Brunswick, GA 31520 (International student requirements).

• On request we can also email the translation directly to the admissions office.

If you need a translator certified by ATA

Some offices accept only a translator who is personally certified by the American Translators Association (ATA). eVerbary assigns one on request, for the languages ATA certifies into English:

To order it, ask for a free quote and write in the notes that the translation is for Coastal Georgia, which program it is for, and that you need a translator individually certified by ATA, plus anything else the office asks for (notarization, delivery by email to the office).

We confirm the price and the translator before you pay. ATA does not certify other languages into English, so no translator anywhere holds ATA certification for them.

For those languages we provide a notarized certified translation instead, at $44.95 per page plus notarization ($34.90 per order); ask the office to confirm it accepts that, and write its answer in the quote notes.

How to order

1. Scan or photograph every page of the document, front and back, including any stamps on the reverse.
2. Upload it, choose the language and "certified", and see the price before paying.
3. 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.
