Requirements checked on November 13, 2026 from Rush's public pages (sources).
Rush University requires a course-by-course evaluation from World Education Services (WES) or Educational Credential Evaluators (ECE) for transcripts from institutions outside the US, in the College of Nursing, the College of Health Sciences and the Graduate College.
Rush's evaluation agencies, WES and ECE, accept certified translations from professional services such as eVerbary.
The translation goes to the agency first, and the agency sends its report to Rush; the evaluation itself is something we do not provide.

Sample translation: a Congolese secondary school transcript
This is what an order looks like when it is delivered, with a fictitious student. The PDF starts with the signed certification page, and the translation follows the original line for line: every abbreviation is explained, stamps, seals and signatures are noted in brackets, and the grid stays the same, so an admissions officer or a credential evaluator can match it without guessing.
What to notice
- Two school years in the same grid as the original: every subject, grading period, exam and total, so each grade can be read against its maximum.
- The French rating abbreviations are translated (TB becomes VG, Very good), and every abbreviation is explained in a translator's note at the foot of the same page, including one the original never defines.
- Dates are written the US way (the original's 02/07/2015 is February 7, 2015).
- The photo, seals and signatures are noted in brackets where they appear.

Rush requirements in detail
Translation
Rush states no translation rule; the evaluation agency needs the translation before it evaluates a document not in English.
Who may translate
Set by the agency: WES wants a professional translator; ECE accepts complete, word-for-word translations, even your own.
College of Nursing
Course-by-course evaluations from WES or ECE for transcripts from foreign institutions; applications through NursingCAS (College of Nursing: applying).
College of Health Sciences
A course-by-course report with GPA calculations for all international coursework, from WES or ECE (College of Health Sciences: international course evaluations).
Graduate College
Official course-by-course evaluation from ECE or WES only, emailed by the agency directly to Rush (Graduate College: applying).
When
Graduate College: unofficial copies uploaded first; official documents after acceptance (Graduate College: applying).
Two agencies, three colleges
Rush is a health sciences university, mostly graduate, and each college publishes its own admission steps, but all name the same two agencies.
The College of Nursing requires course-by-course evaluations for transcripts from foreign institutions and accepts WES and ECE; applications and transcripts go through NursingCAS, which can take up to 10 business days to process transcripts.
The College of Health Sciences asks for a course-by-course report with grade point average calculations, because foreign coursework may count toward program prerequisites.
The Graduate College's Division of Translational Science asks applicants with a degree from outside the US for an official course-by-course evaluation from ECE or WES only, which the agency emails directly to Rush.
It reviews unofficial transcript copies in the preliminary round and asks for official documents only after acceptance.
What each evaluation agency asks for the translation
WES wants an exact, word-for-word translation by a professional translator, such as a certified translation agency; it does not accept translations made by applicants and does not translate documents itself.
ECE asks for complete, literal translations in the same format as the original, lets applicants prepare them, and sells an $85 Translation Waiver under which it translates internally for the report without giving you a translation.
A certified translation from a professional service works with either agency. Translate the full transcripts, the degree certificate and the grading scale, since Health Sciences asks for a GPA calculation. See also translation for WES.
Need a certified translation for Rush?
$24.95 per page with no word cap, certification included, usually within 24 hours for one to three pages. See the price before you pay.
Documents applicants usually translate
- University transcripts (all years) and mark sheets
- Degree certificate
- Grading scale
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 with no word cap, 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 Rush
The translation goes to WES or ECE with your records, in the agency's account, and the agency sends the course-by-course report to Rush or to NursingCAS for nursing applicants (Graduate College: applying, nursing).
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 Rush that means we translate your records for WES or ECE; the course-by-course evaluation is ordered by you from the agency after the translation.
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
Which evaluation agencies does Rush accept?
WES and ECE only (Graduate College: applying).
Do I need a GPA in the evaluation?
For the College of Health Sciences, yes: a course-by-course report with GPA calculations (College of Health Sciences: international course evaluations).
Can I use an eVerbary translation for WES?
Yes. WES accepts translations from a professional translation service (WES).
Do I send the evaluation myself?
No. For the Graduate College the agency emails the evaluation directly to Rush (Graduate College: applying).
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.
