Translating Academic Documents from Arabic to English

Translation of high school diplomas and transcripts from Arabic to English

A high school diploma is usually a 1-page document that represents one’s completion of the requirements for graduation from high school. Students who have earned a diploma from a high school in an Arabic-speaking country and wish to attend a college or university in the United States often have to submit a certified English translation of their diploma to the admissions office. They might need Arabic translation services for their academic transcripts too. Academic transcripts typically mention the student’s full name, the courses they have taken, their grade, and school year. If you need to have your diploma and/or transcripts translated from Arabic to English, please get in touch with us.

Translation of college and university diplomas and transcripts

Like high schools colleges and universities issue degrees and academic transcripts. Colleges and universities around the world usually include the students’ personal information, the degree they pursued, and official stamps of the institutions. If you attended a college or a university in an Arabic speaking country such as Saudi Arabia or Kuwait and you need to have your documents translated into English for a school in the United States, please get in touch with us. We have extensive experience translating diplomas, school records, and research papers from Arabic to English.

Translation of letters of recommendation from Arabic to English

Educational institutions often require applicants to submit a letter of recommendation from their former instructors, supervisors, or employers. International candidates from non-English speaking countries that have their letters of recommendation in a foreign language are typically required to submit those documents along with their English translations. If you studied and/or worked in an Arabic speaking country and would like to have your letter of recommendation translated for a school in the United States, please contact us. We have translated many documents from Arabic to English and would love to have the opportunity to assist you too.

Certified translation of bank statements from Arabic speaking countries

When schools in the United States review applications from international candidates they also want to know whether the applicants have the financial ability to cover the expenses of their education. International applicants commonly submit bank statements and other documents that serve as proof of their ability to pay for their living expenses while they study in the United States. If you have a bank statement that needs to be translated from Arabic to English for admissions, please get in touch with us. We can translate your bank statements, pay stubs, and other documents that the school has requested. If you need the currencies to be changed to USD, please let us know too.

Official translation of ID cards and passports

Educational institutions in the United States might ask international applicants to submit a copy of their ID card and passport in order to verify their personal information. If your ID is in the Arabic language you will need to render Arabic to English translation services. Please email us your ID card, passport, or any other document that the school has requested to verify your identity. We have translated many ID cards, passports, birth certificates, and other documents from Arabic to English. Please be ready to provide the spellings of names that appear on your personal documents.

Translation of school websites, pamphlets, brochures, etc. for international applicants

Admissions offices in American universities might need their website, pamphlets, brochures, and other material translated into foreign languages for international candidates. Students from the Middle East and North Africa who review the information might feel more comfortable with the Arabic translation. Academic advisors who wish to provide the information in various languages including Arabic can reach out to us. We can translate the content on your website and any other information you would like to provide to Arabic speaking visitors.

How is the translation executed?

Our Arabic translators who are experts in academic document translations often interpret the meaning of the words they are asked to translate. They examine the texts before translating the Arabic words into English. Since this language is written from right to left as opposed to English, which is read from left to right, the translator has to plan how to fit the translated content at the beginning of the translation process. Such factors are essential to the delivery of a translation that is easy to read and understand. Once the translation is ready, we will email you a copy to review. If the American school requires the translation to be forwarded to them directly you can provide their email address. Please email your documents to info@cacfti.com for a quote.
