Which Type of Academic Translation Do You Need?

Academic translation covers two distinct needs. Certified document translation (transcripts, diplomas, course descriptions, and recommendation letters) is required for submission to universities, credential agencies (WES, ECE, NACES), licensing boards, and USCIS, each requiring a signed certificate of accuracy.

Research and manuscript translation covers theses, dissertations, abstracts, and grant proposals for journal submission or peer review, requiring subject-matter expertise and adherence to APA, MLA, Chicago, or Vancouver standards. Tomedes provides both, recognized among the best translation services by Clutch – an independent B2B ratings and reviews platform. Tomedes is also trusted by leading education organizations including TUMO, Paradigm Math, and Course Hero.
