How we know · policy checked on October 26, 2026
Wharton County Junior College says international high school diplomas must be evaluated, recommends The Evaluation Company through a discounted WCJC application, and accepts any other company that is a NACES member; it publishes no translation rule of its own.
WCJC's evaluation agencies, such as WES and ECE, accept certified translations from professional services such as eVerbary. The translation goes to the agency first; the evaluation is something we do not produce.

WCJC requirements in detail
Translation
No rule of its own; the evaluation service needs the translation (How to apply).
Who may translate
Set by the evaluation service; see below.
Evaluation
International high school diplomas must be evaluated; WCJC accepts international high school equivalency credentials (How to apply).
Agencies
The Evaluation Company is recommended; any other company must be a NACES member (How to apply).
Official records
Sent directly by the school or in a sealed envelope, by email to admissions@wcjc.edu or mail to 911 Boling Hwy, Wharton, TX 77488 (How to apply).
What the evaluation agencies ask for the translation
The Evaluation Company, WCJC's recommended service, wants an outside translator certified by the American Translators Association or translates in-house; ask eVerbary for a free quote and say it is for TEC, and we assign a translator individually certified by ATA.
With another NACES member the rule can be wider: WES wants a word-for-word translation by a professional translator, and ECE accepts any complete, literal translation or translates internally for an $85 waiver.
A rule for every applicant with a foreign diploma
WCJC's how-to-apply steps are written for all applicants, so the evaluation applies to residents and immigrants who finished high school abroad, not only to F-1 students (How to apply).
Official records must come from your school or in a sealed envelope, and unofficial or unsealed copies sent by students are not accepted.
Send the evaluation request with the translation, so the agency can report the US equivalency of your diploma without asking for more.
Need a certified translation for WCJC?
$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
- High school equivalency credential from abroad
- College transcripts, if any
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 WCJC
The translation goes to the evaluation service with your records; the evaluation goes to WCJC Admissions at admissions@wcjc.edu or 911 Boling Hwy, Wharton, TX 77488 (How to apply).
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 WCJC that means we translate your diploma and transcripts; the evaluation is ordered by you from TEC or another NACES member.
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
