If the WES assessment does not contain all official transcripts the applicant must provide with their application:
Original transcripts sent to ORPAS by originating institution(s) along with a legend from the university that explains the grading scale. If the transcripts are not in English, an official and notarized English language translation completed by a certified translator must be provided.
Where official international transcripts may be difficult to obtain, ORPAS will accept original notarized copies of transcripts in both English and the original language. Please note that photocopies of original notarized documents are not acceptable and will not be considered.
