Southwest Tennessee requirements in detail
Translation
All foreign transcripts translated into English (International student checklist).
Who may translate
Not stated by Southwest Tennessee; the evaluator sets its own rule.
Evaluation
For US equivalency, from any NACES member; you contact the service and pay its fees (International student checklist).
College credit
Submit an official college transcript and request a course-by-course evaluation (International student checklist).
What NACES agencies ask for the translation
WES wants an exact, word-for-word translation by a professional translator and rejects translations by applicants.
ECE accepts complete, word-for-word translations, including your own, or translates for its report only under an $85 waiver. IERF asks for typed, line-by-line translations and may require a professional one.
If you choose an agency that asks for an ATA-certified translator, eVerbary can assign one on request.
Every foreign transcript, high school and college
Southwest Tennessee applies the same rule to all foreign transcripts: translated into English and evaluated for the US equivalent (International student checklist).
Translate the full high school diploma and transcripts; if you want credit for college work abroad, also translate the college transcript and ask the agency for a course-by-course report.

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.

Uploading the translation to Southwest Tennessee
The translation goes to the NACES agency with your transcripts; the agency's evaluation goes to Southwest Tennessee (International student checklist).
On request we can email the translation directly to the admissions office.
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 Southwest Tennessee that means we translate your transcripts; the NACES evaluation is ordered and paid 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.
