OBU requirements in detail
Translation
An official English translation with any transcript not in English, for freshmen and transfers (International transcripts).
Who may translate
Not stated (International transcripts).
Freshmen
Official high school transcript with at least six semesters of study (International transcripts).
Transfers under 24 credits
High school and college transcripts, translated; college transcripts evaluated by ECE or WES (International transcripts).
Transfers over 24 credits
College transcripts only, translated and evaluated by ECE or WES (International transcripts).
Evaluation
Only for college transcripts (International transcripts).
How many records you send depends on your credits
OBU sorts applicants in three groups (International transcripts). Freshmen send the high school transcript, with at least six semesters.
Transfers with fewer than 24 college credits send both high school and college transcripts; those with more send college transcripts only. Every transcript not in English goes with an official English translation.
ECE or WES for college work
College transcripts must be evaluated by ECE or WES (International transcripts).
WES wants a word-for-word translation by a professional translator and does not translate itself; ECE accepts a complete, literal translation or sells an $85 waiver. One certified translation can go to OBU and to the agency.

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 OBU
Send the official transcripts with their English translations to OBU International Admissions (International transcripts).
We can send the translation directly to the admissions office by email on request.
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 OBU that means we translate your transcripts; the ECE or WES evaluation of college transcripts is ordered by you.
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.
