LCC requirements in detail
Translation
An official English translation must accompany all documents (M1 and F1 admission).
Who may translate
Not stated (M1 and F1 admission).
Proof of high school
One of: diploma, transcript with all courses, grades and graduation date, certificate of national examination results, or an unofficial college transcript (M1 and F1 admission).
Certified copies
An original, or a photocopy signed and stamped by the school or government agency that issued it (M1 and F1 admission).
Still in high school
An official transcript and a letter in English from the school confirming enrollment and expected completion (M1 and F1 admission).
Credit from abroad
A credit evaluation report from a NACES member, sent directly to the Records Office in Lansing; documents for credit must be in English (M1 and F1 admission, FAQ).
Timing
Documents at least four weeks before the term if you are in the US; at least six months ahead from abroad; you may apply up to a year in advance (M1 and F1 admission).
Certified copy plus official translation
LCC asks for two separate things. The proof of high school completion must be a certified copy: an original document, or a photocopy attested with an official stamp or seal by the school or government agency that issued it.
Then an official English translation must accompany all documents (M1 and F1 admission).
The attestation comes from your school or ministry; the translation can come from a professional service, and it should cover the stamp and seal on the attested copy as well as the grades.
LCC gives four ways to prove completion: the diploma, a transcript showing every course, grade and the graduation date, a certificate of national examination results, or an unofficial college transcript (M1 and F1 admission).
Applicants who have not finished high school send an official transcript and a letter in English from their school confirming enrollment and the expected completion date.
Credit for study abroad
For coursework outside the US, LCC wants a credit evaluation report from a member of the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services, sent by the agency to the Records Office; contact the NACES member for its request form (M1 and F1 admission).
The FAQ adds that all documents submitted for consideration must be in English, and that reports and transcripts become LCC's property (forms and FAQ).
Official transcripts must go school to school; hand-delivered transcripts, even sealed, are used only for advising. Agencies set their own translation rules; see translation for credential evaluation.

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 LCC
Send the certified copies with their translations to Global Student Services by email to LCC-International@lcc.edu, by mail to 411 N Grand Ave, Lansing, or by fax with your name on every page (M1 and F1 admission).
For credit, the NACES agency sends its report directly to the Records Office (M1 and F1 admission).
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 LCC that means we translate your diploma, transcripts and exam certificates, including stamps and seals; the attested copy comes from your school, and the NACES credit evaluation from an evaluation agency.
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.
Frequently asked questions
What kind of translation does LCC accept?
An official English translation; LCC does not say who must make it (M1 and F1 admission). A certified translation from a professional service such as eVerbary qualifies.
What is a certified copy for LCC?
An original, or a photocopy signed with an official stamp or seal by the school or agency that issued it (M1 and F1 admission).
Can I use my national exam certificate instead of a diploma?
Yes, a certificate of national examination results is one of the accepted proofs (M1 and F1 admission).
How do I get credit for courses taken abroad?
Request a credit evaluation report from a NACES member, sent directly to LCC's Records Office (International admissions forms and FAQ).
How early should I apply from abroad?
At least six months ahead; you may apply up to a year before the term (M1 and F1 admission).
Will eVerbary convert my grades to a US GPA?
No. The translation reproduces the grades and the grading scale exactly as they appear. A GPA conversion is credential evaluation, which the institution or an evaluation agency does.
