Studying in Egypt? Why You Still Need Certified Academic Translation

Why International Students in Egypt Need Certified Academic Translation

Studying in Egypt in English? Learn why you still need certified academic translations for visa renewals, embassy paperwork, and future international opportunities.

Studying in Egypt? Why You Still Need Certified Academic Translation

Egypt is home to dozens of universities offering English-language programs in medicine, engineering, business, and the humanities. Whether you’re studying at AUC, GUC, MUST, Ain Shams, or any other institution, one thing remains essential—even if you’re studying in English:

You still need certified academic translation for your documents.

At COT Translation Services, we help international students navigate university paperwork, visa renewals, and post-graduation applications by providing certified, accurate, and officially accepted translations.

When Do Students Need Certified Translations in Egypt?

Even if your courses are in English, Egyptian academic and legal systems still operate in Arabic. Here are key scenarios where translation becomes essential:

1. Visa Renewals or Residency Permits

Immigration offices often require Arabic translations of enrollment letters, academic transcripts, or proof of attendance—especially for student visa renewal.

 2. Transferring to Another University

If you’re switching universities in Egypt or abroad, your transcripts and course syllabi may need to be translated and certified for international use.

 3. Applying for Scholarships or Internships

Scholarship committees and internship programs in the EU, UK, or US usually request certified translations of grades and recommendation letters.

 4. Continuing Education Abroad

After finishing your studies in Egypt, applying to master’s or PhD programs abroad requires officially translated diplomas, transcripts, and sometimes course descriptions.

Why Certified Translation (Not Just English Copies)?

Even if your university issues documents in English, many embassies and foreign academic institutions still require an official translation that includes:

A translator’s signed declaration.

An official stamp from a recognized translation office.

Proper formatting and terminology.

Compliance with embassy or university standards.

COT provides all of this—plus same-day delivery for urgent student deadlines.
