How we know · policy checked on October 27, 2026
Richland Community College in Decatur, Illinois, requires international applicants to have completed the equivalent of a US high school diploma, and their transcripts must be evaluated by a transcript evaluation service and translated into English; it does not say who must translate.
Richland Community College accepts certified translations from professional services such as eVerbary. The evaluation is a separate step from an evaluation service, and that is something we do not provide.

Richland requirements in detail
Translation
Transcripts translated into English (International students).
Who may translate
Not stated (International students).
Evaluation
By a transcript evaluation service; the Registrar has a list of services available in the US (International students).
Academic level
The equivalent of a US high school diploma, 12th grade (International students).

Application, forms and credentials on file 60 days before the term; from overseas, apply at least six months ahead for the visa (International students).

A translation and an evaluation, both
Richland's international page puts both requirements in one sentence: transcripts must be evaluated by a transcript evaluation service and translated into English (International students).
The translation lets Richland and the evaluator read your records; the evaluation shows that your schooling equals a US high school diploma.
Richland does not name the services on the page; ask the Registrar for its list before you order, and check that agency's own translation rule, since most evaluators read the translation you send them. See translation for credential evaluation.
Working back from the 60-day rule
Richland wants the application and all credentials on file 60 days before the term begins, and applicants overseas should apply at least six months ahead to leave time for the visa (International students).
An evaluation can take weeks, so translate your high school diploma and transcripts first: most eVerbary orders are delivered within a few hours, and one to three pages within 24 hours at most. There is no application fee.
Need a certified translation for Richland?
$24.95 per page of up to 250 words, certification included, usually within 24 hours for one to three pages. See the price before you pay.
Documents applicants usually translate
- High school diploma or leaving certificate
- High school transcripts or mark sheets, every year
- College transcripts, if you studied after high school
- Bank statements or bank affidavit, 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 Richland
Send the application and your credentials to Richland Community College, One College Park, Decatur, IL 62521, so they are on file 60 days before the term (International students). The evaluation service receives the translation with your records.
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 Richland that means we translate your transcripts; the evaluation comes from a transcript evaluation service you choose from the Registrar's list.
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.
