-
Which documents do I need translated?Because Credential Consultants does not evaluate the documents, we cannot tell you exactly which documents must be translated. Prior to applying for a translation, it is best to first speak with the target institution to determine which documents are needed.
-
How much does a translation typically cost? How do I get a quote before applying for a translation on the CC website?The cost of translating documents ranges from $65-$79 per page and depends on the language of origin and word count. To request an exact quote, go to the Translations page, and click on the Request a Quote button to quickly and easily request a quote. We will usually respond with an exact quote within 1 business day.
-
Are your translations certified? Are you ATA members?Yes, all of our translations are certified with a translator's affadavit cover page, and we are longstanding members of the American Translators Association (ATA).
-
What information and documents do you need to translate my documents?To translate your documents, we simply need an electronic copy of your documents and the basic information that is filled out on the CC application. We do not require original or physical copies of your documents. Please do not send original documents to us. This will only delay your evaluation process and your documents could get lost in the mail.
-
How long does a translation usually take?Typically, translations take 4-7 business days. Files containing more than ten pages may take as long as 8-10 business days. If you need the documents by a certain date, please let us know and we will try our best to accommodate your needs.
-
Is there a way to expedite the translation?Yes. We offer a 2-day RUSH service, which guarantees that the translation will be completed and delivered within two business days. This service ranges from $59-$99, depending on the number of pages in your order.
-
How do I request a translation, make payment, and submit documents?"You can request a translation by navigating to the "Translations" page and clicking the button that says "Click Here to Apply for a Translation." You will be able to request services, submit payment, and upload your documents via this application.
-
How can I check on the status of my translation?To check on the status of your translation, click on the following link ïƒ https://cc.credentialconnection.com/login_status.aspx and enter your CC ID (the ID given to you upon completion of the CC application) (Example: CC57849) This link is also available on our home page.
-
Where will you send my translation once it is complete?Once completed, a secure electronic copy of your certified translation will be sent directly to your personal email address. Additionally, we will send a copy of your translation directly to the evaluation agency or academic institution if you have requested it in your application. If you have requested a physical copy in your application, we will send it to the address provided.
-
Does my school need a copy of the translation?This varies from school to school. Typically, if your academic institution does not have an academic credential evaluation department, they do not need a copy of the translation, electronic or physical. Most often, the translation needs to be sent directly to an evaluation company, who will evaluate the translated documents so that they may be sent to your school once evaluated.
