What the service covers
Your Academic Record, Translated as a Complete Document
An academic transcript contains far more than a list of subjects. Universities, employers and professional organisations may need to understand the modules studied, marks awarded, credits completed, academic periods, institutional information and any grading notes shown on the original.
The translation should therefore remain easy to compare with the source document. Names, dates, figures, tables, reference numbers, stamps and other visible information should be handled consistently across the complete transcript.
- University transcripts
- College transcripts
- Mark sheets
- Grade reports
- Module lists
- Credit records
- Grading scales
- Academic annexes
Transcript details
What Is Included in an Academic Transcript Translation?
The aim is to reproduce the information that gives the academic record its meaning, rather than translating only the obvious headings and leaving important details unclear.
Marks and Grades
Numerical marks, letter grades, pass classifications and related grading information are reproduced clearly.
Credits and Study Load
Credit values, ECTS information and other study-load information where these details appear on the original.
Academic Periods
Years, semesters, terms, study dates and completion information shown within the transcript.
Institutional Details
University or school information, departments, registrar details and document references where visible.
Stamps and Signatures
Relevant visible stamps, seals, signatures and certification information are reflected appropriately in the translated record.
Grading Notes
Legends, grading keys, explanations and notes that help the reader interpret the transcript.
Tables and Structure
The layout is presented clearly so modules, grades, credits and other entries can be cross-checked against the source.
Common uses
Where a Translated Academic Transcript May Be Needed
Requirements differ between receiving organisations. Check the instructions for your particular application before submitting translated documents.
University and College Applications
Academic transcripts may be requested when applying for further study, transferring institutions or documenting previous academic achievement.
UK ENIC Applications
Official transcripts can form part of a Statement of Comparability application. Translation requirements depend on the documents, language and current UK ENIC rules.
Employment and Registration
Employers and professional bodies may ask for translated academic records when checking education, training or qualification history.
An important distinction
Transcript Translation Is Not the Same as Grade Conversion
The translation reflects the academic record.
Grades, marks and classifications shown on your original transcript should be represented faithfully rather than silently replaced with assumed UK equivalents.
Translation
Converts the language of the document while preserving its academic information, figures and structure.
Grade conversion
Attempts to interpret one grading system against another. This is a separate assessment and should not be confused with translating the original record.
UK ENIC
Its Statement of Comparability evaluates qualifications against UK education systems, but the Statement itself does not comment on individual grades or grade comparisons.
Your application
The university, employer or professional organisation receiving your documents makes the final decision about its own evidence and assessment requirements.

Common questions
Academic Transcript Translation FAQs
Practical answers about certification, grades, UK ENIC, document preparation, pricing and turnaround.
What is an academic transcript translation?
It is a translation of an academic record showing information such as subjects, modules, marks, grades, credits, study periods and institutional details. The translated version should remain clear to compare with the source document.
Can my transcript be provided as a certified translation?
Yes. Translation Services 24 provides certified document translation, with a signed declaration confirming that the translation is a true and complete representation of the original. Check the exact requirements of the organisation receiving your transcript.
Do you convert my foreign grades into UK grades?
The purpose of the translation is to represent the grades and marks shown on your original transcript accurately, not to silently replace them with assumed UK equivalents. Qualification or grade comparison is a separate process.
Do I need a certified transcript translation for UK ENIC?
UK ENIC requires official transcripts for a Statement of Comparability. If documents are not in English, certified translations are normally required unless the language is covered by its Translation Waiver Service. Check the current UK ENIC document guidance before ordering.
Does UK ENIC convert or compare my individual grades?
UK ENIC states that its Statement of Comparability does not comment on individual grades, grade comparisons or specific subjects. Its service focuses on how the qualification compares with UK education systems.
Should I send my degree certificate with my transcript?
If both documents form part of the same application, send the complete set for review. This makes it easier to keep names, qualification terminology and other repeated details consistent across the translated documents.
Do grading scales and transcript legends need translating?
If a grading key, legend or explanatory page forms part of the transcript and is needed by the receiving organisation, include it when requesting the quote so the complete document can be assessed.
Can you translate mark sheets as well as university transcripts?
Yes. Academic-document translation can include transcripts, mark sheets, grade records, module lists, diplomas, degree certificates and related academic records.
How much does academic transcript translation cost?
Certified translation currently starts from £40 for standard documents. Academic transcripts are often multi-page, so the final price depends on the language pair, page count, density, formatting, certification requirements and turnaround. Send the complete file for an accurate order total.
How long does a transcript translation take?
Standard turnaround for many certified translations is usually around two to three working days. A longer or highly formatted academic transcript may take longer, while urgent same-day or next-day options may be available for suitable requests.
Can I send a photograph instead of a PDF?
A clear photograph may be suitable if all text, grades, stamps, signatures and page edges are readable. PDF, JPG, PNG, Word files and clear scans can also be sent for review.
What if my name is spelled differently on the transcript and passport?
Tell the team before translation begins and provide the spelling used on your current passport or application. The source record must still be represented faithfully, but identifying the difference early helps keep the document set clear and consistent.
