J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College: Translation Requirements for Documents in Another Language

Worth knowing about Reynolds

Reynolds requirements in detail

The original and the translation, for every record

Reynolds wants each record twice: the official version in its original language and an official English translation, for high school and for any college or university (international admission).

The high school transcript must show your graduation date, so make sure the line or stamp with that date is translated. See high school diploma translation.

The college's policy on required documents puts it as a copy of a certified translation or an evaluation of your transcripts, and also asks for copies of high school and college diplomas (policy 1-11).

A certified translation meets the first option; the advisor tells you when an evaluation is needed instead or as well.

Programs, money and timing for F-1 applicants

Reynolds does not admit F-1 students to the School of Health Professions or to programs taught mostly online, and places F-1 applicants in an associate degree program or in ESL according to TOEFL or IELTS scores (Steps for admission: international students).

Its financial package is detailed: an Affidavit of Support, three financial documents no older than three months and a letter from the sponsor's employer giving status and yearly salary.

The page states its translation rule for academic records only; ask the advisor before the June 15 or October 15 deadline whether financial documents in another language need one too.

Documents applicants usually translate

• High school transcript showing the graduation date, and the diploma
• College or university transcripts and diplomas
• Grading scale printed on the transcript

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 Reynolds

• Submit the original-language records, the translations and the rest of the package to the international student advisor in the Office of the Registrar (Admissions@reynolds.edu) by the deadline (Steps for admission: international students).

• We can email the translation directly to the advisor on request; you still provide the official original-language records.

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.
