The Detailed Map of Your Academic Journey
An Academic Transcript (Transkript or Not Döküm Belgesi) is the most critical document for students and professionals seeking to move their careers across borders. It is a comprehensive record of your entire academic history, detailing every course taken, every grade earned, and your overall cumulative performance. Whether you are applying to a prestigious university abroad, seeking professional license equivalency, or pursuing an international career, a certified translation of your transcript is the first and most important step.
In the academic world, precision is a requirement for admission. A mistranslated “Course Title,” an error in “Credit Hours” (AKTS/ECTS), or a failure to correctly convert a “Grading System” can lead to the rejection of your application, loss of scholarship opportunities, or a lower evaluation of your hard-earned qualifications. Precision in Pedagogical Terminology, Credit Systems, and Linguistic Accuracy is absolute.
As Aspendos Tercüme ve Danışmanlık Hizmetleri A.Ş., with over 15 years of experience and holding ISO 17100 and ISO 9001 certifications, we ensure that your academic achievements are translated with 100% accuracy and professional integrity.
Academic Precision and Evaluative Integrity: Our Process
Translating a transcript requires a deep understanding of international education systems and “Equivalency” standards. Our process ensures that your records meet the strict requirements of institutions like WES, ECE, or foreign university boards:
Academic Subject-Matter Specialists: Your transcript is handled by a Sworn Translator who specializes in educational documents. They ensure that complex course names (from “Quantum Mechanics” to “Constitutional Law”) and institutional terms are rendered with perfect terminology.
ISO 17100:2015 Quality Standards:
- Numerical & Credit Audit: We perform a meticulous double-check on all grades, GPA calculations, and credit hours to ensure they mirror the original document perfectly.
- Glossary Alignment: We use specific academic glossaries to ensure that your degree and course titles are translated in a way that is easily understood by admissions officers in the target country.
Format Mirroring: We provide a “Mirrored Translation” of the transcript. We replicate the layout of the original document, including the course tables, semester divisions, and the official legend for grading systems, making it easy for evaluators to compare the two documents side-by-side.
Confidentiality: Academic records contain private personal data. We operate under strict privacy protocols and the KVKK (Data Protection Law) to ensure your academic history remains secure.
Key Components of Transcripts We Translate
We provide specialized translation for every element of your academic record:
| Transcript Element | Turkish Term | Critical Translation Focus |
| Course Names | Ders Adları | Accurate rendering of specialized academic subjects. |
| Credit Systems | Kredi Sistemi (AKTS/ECTS) | Precise transcription of numerical credit values. |

| Degree Status | Mezuniyet Durumu | Clear rendering of “Cum Laude,” “Honors,” or “Active.” |
Why “Official Recognition” is the Core of Your Application
For a transcript to be accepted by a foreign university or an evaluation body, it must be officially validated. We focus on:
Sworn & Notarized Status: We provide the Notary Public Certification required for most official applications. This confirms the translator’s identity and the document’s official standing before institutions like the Council of Higher Education (YÖK) or foreign embassies.
Apostille Management: If you are using your transcript in a country that is part of the Hague Convention, an Apostille is usually mandatory. We manage this entire process at the District Governor’s office (Kaymakamlık) for you.
Equivalency Support: We provide the high-register, formal translation needed for “Denklik” (Equivalency) processes, ensuring your degree is recognized at its true value abroad.
