Translation for admission in Quebec

Cegeps, universities and professional programmes ask for complete, translated academic documents.

Short answer

For admission, certified translation is usually enough; check the programme’s page.

Some institutions ask for the translation to be sent with the original documents, and sometimes directly by the issuing school.

Usual documents

  • Transcripts for every year
  • Diploma or completion statement
  • The institution’s grading scale
  • Language certificate, when requested

What is checked

  • The grading scale is translated, often from the back of the transcript.
  • The programme name and length of studies.
  • The institution’s seals.

Deadlines

Admission deadlines are firm. Order the translation as soon as you receive the documents, without waiting for the programme’s decision.

To have studies done outside Quebec recognized, MIFI applies its own comparative evaluation rules.

Common mistake

Sending a screenshot of the school portal instead of the official transcript.

Best next step

Upload your transcripts and diplomas: the quote states the total price and turnaround.
