WOU requirements in detail
Translation
Official transcripts from all prior institutions, with certified English translations if applicable (Western Oregon University: international admissions).
Who may translate
Not stated.
Evaluation
None mentioned on the international admissions page (Western Oregon University: international admissions).
First-year minimum
2.75 unweighted cumulative GPA (Western Oregon University: international admissions).
Transfer minimum
2.25 cumulative GPA with at least 36 transferable quarter or 24 semester credits; otherwise the first-year standard applies (Western Oregon University: international admissions).
Deadlines
Fall 2027: apply by July 1, 2027, confirm by August 1, 2027 (Western Oregon University: international admissions).
WOU reads your grades itself
Western Oregon's international admissions page sets GPA minimums, 2.75 unweighted for first-year applicants and 2.25 for transfers with at least 36 transferable quarter credits, and asks only for official transcripts with certified English translations, not for an outside evaluation (international admissions).
That means the translation is the document admissions staff read to place your grades on its scale, so it must carry every grade, the grading legend and the school's stamps exactly as issued.
Admitted international students with a GPA of 3.0 or higher on a 4.0 scale automatically receive WOU's Merit Scholarship, renewable annually; other general and departmental scholarships need their own applications (Western Oregon University: international admissions). A translation never converts your marks into a GPA; WOU does that.
Which transcripts to translate
"All prior institutions" includes your secondary school as well as any college or university.
Transfer applicants with fewer than 36 transferable quarter credits are judged by the first-year standard, so translate the secondary record too (Western Oregon University: international admissions).
Financial documents, such as bank statements, affidavits or scholarship awards, are also requested; WOU's page does not set a translation rule for them. WOU states that it does not require applicants to use recruitment agencies.

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 WOU
Official transcripts and their certified English translations are submitted with the WOU international application (Western Oregon University: international admissions). eVerbary can email the translation directly to WOU's international admissions office 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.
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.
