Keene State College: Translation Requirements for Documents in Another Language

Worth knowing about Keene State

Keene State requirements in detail

Two documents for one record

Keene State asks international applicants for both a translation and an evaluation.

The records themselves come as official copies with official English translations, and they must show the grade or mark for each course; separately, a NACES member writes a course-by-course evaluation of the same credentials (International students).

Keene State does not name a preferred agency; its Office of National and International Exchange keeps the list.

Order the translation first. The agency needs it to evaluate a document not in English, and you can send the same certified translation to Keene State with your records. WES, a NACES member, accepts a word-for-word translation from a professional translation service.

Transfer credit and graduate study

Credit from abroad may be granted after Keene State checks how the institution is recognized by the education authorities at home and compares the content and level of each course, which applies also to the final years of secondary school (International students). The course-by-course report is what that comparison reads.

Graduate applicants with college work abroad have the transcripts evaluated by a professional service such as World Education Services, and each transcript must come with a certified English translation (graduate requirements).

Documents applicants usually translate

• Secondary school transcripts, mark sheets or grade reports
• Leaving certificates and national exam results
• University transcripts with a grade for each course
• Bachelor's degree certificates, for graduate applicants

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 Keene State

• Undergraduates apply through the Common Application; the official records with their translations go to Admissions, and the NACES agency sends its course-by-course report (International students).

  Graduate applicants send the translation with their transcripts to Graduate Studies and to the evaluation service (Graduate studies: application requirements).

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.
