First-hand document experience

Real Italian translation cases

Italian transcripts pair 18–30 exam grades with CFU credits and SSD discipline codes, and older graduates may hold only a professor-signed Libretto. The precision this takes shows in every Italian record we publish — these real cases show the decisions involved.

Redacted handwritten Italian civil extract with cursive entries confirmed letter by letter

Italy · Handwritten entries

Cursive handwriting had to be read letter by letter

We verified each handwritten name against the typed portions and the family’s own documents before certifying — the same discipline a professor-signed Libretto demands.

We translated the American decree and its apostille into Italian for the Comune’s trascrizione, keeping every court term precise in the other direction too.

My Certificato degli Esami from Università la Sapienza had 35 courses with SSD codes and CFU values. CertTranslate translated every single entry with the /30 grade, the discipline code, and the credit count. WES processed my evaluation in under a week.

Verified order

I had a pre-Bologna Libretto Universitario from Politecnico di Torino — all handwritten by different professors across 5 years. The translator managed to read every entry and produced a clean spreadsheet-style translation. My engineering licensing board accepted it immediately.

Verified order

Needed my Laurea Magistrale transcript translated for a U.S. PhD program. The translation clearly distinguished graded exams from idoneità entries, and every course had both the Italian and English name. The admissions office said it was one of the cleanest foreign transcripts they’d seen.

Translation and evaluation are different services

Do I need translation or credential evaluation?

Choose certified translation when you need an accurate English version. Choose credential evaluation when a school or agency asks how your studies compare with a U.S. degree. Many people need both.

What CertTranslate provides

Certified translation

A certified translation is a complete English translation accompanied by the translator's signed statement that the translation is complete and accurate and that the translator is competent to translate.

  • Covers courses, grades, credits, legends, notes, seals, and signatures
  • Keeps the source grading scale and school terms
  • Makes the English version easy to compare with the source

We translate your record. We do not change the credential or calculate a new GPA.

What a credential evaluator provides

Credential evaluation

A credential evaluation shows how your studies compare with the U.S. system. WES, ECE, and similar agencies issue this report.

  • Determines the U.S. equivalent of your credential
  • May calculate or report a U.S.-style GPA
  • Uses rules for your country, school, and program

CertTranslate does not issue evaluation reports. Check the file list from the school or agency handling your case.

Eras and formats

How do Italian transcripts differ by era?

Italy rebuilt its degree system around 2001, so the era of your record decides whether CFU and SSD codes appear. We follow the terms and scale printed on your record.

Certificato degli Esami Sostenuti

Modern Italian Transcript Translation

Also issued with: Issued by the Segreteria Studenti

Typical scale
18–30, with 30 e lode
Common pass mark
18
Credits
CFU + SSD codes

Modern records list each course with its SSD discipline code, CFU count, voto out of 30, exam date, and professor. The record integrates with the Diploma Supplement under ECTS conventions.

We preserve the full data table — course, SSD, CFU, grade, and date — so the evaluator reads it as issued.

Certificato degli Esami Sostenuti

Transitional-Era Transcript Translation

Also issued with: Vecchio and nuovo ordinamento may mix

Typical scale
18–30
Credits
CFU on some courses only
May show
Both ordinamento labels

Transition-era students accumulated old-system exams and CFU-bearing courses side by side, sometimes with both vecchio and nuovo ordinamento designations.

We translate the record exactly as printed and add a translator’s note where the credit format changes mid-transcript, so the evaluator is not surprised.

Libretto Universitario

Libretto Universitario Translation

Also issued with: The professor-signed exam booklet

Typical scale
18–30
Credits
Annualità, no CFU
Entries
Signed by each professor

Pre-Bologna records list courses by name, grade, and exam date without CFU or SSD codes — the annualità course-years were the only load measure, and the Libretto was the primary exam record.

We translate the booklet format clearly, preserve the examining professors’ signatures and dates, and note the absence of CFU for the evaluator.

The real price of a dense page

How much can a 250-word page cap add to a transcript price?

A 250-word cap can turn one dense transcript page into two or three billed pages. CertTranslate charges for the physical pages you upload, not the number of words on them.

Before you submit

What can cause questions during transcript review?

Questions usually start where the English version blurs an Italian distinction: an ungraded idoneità, the two voto scales, a handwritten Libretto entry, or a mid-record credit change. We rebuild the structure and check these details before certification.

01

An idoneità is averaged in as a grade

How we handle it: Idoneità entries keep their pass/fail character and their CFU, clearly separate from the 18–30 graded exams.

02

Course grades out of 30 read like the final degree score out of 110

How we handle it: The /30 denominator stays on every course grade, so nothing is mistaken for the final laurea result.

03

Handwritten Libretto entries are guessed

How we handle it: We read what the scan supports, verify against typed portions, and ask for a better image rather than invent an entry.

04

A mid-record change in credit format goes unexplained

How we handle it: Where CFU appear on only part of a transitional transcript, a translator’s note flags the change for the evaluator.

The standard behind these checks

AcceptReady™ is CertTranslate's published standard for certified translations: complete word-for-word translation, mirrored page layout, signed and stamped Certificate of Accuracy on letterhead, and matched to the receiver's published requirements.

How to check each one yourself

Start with the full record: send all pages and the instructions from the school or agency. If a name, grade, or date is unreadable, we ask instead of guessing.

Common questions

Italian transcript translation questions, answered

These answers cover price, delivery, evaluation requirements, grading scales, and the files you should send.

How much does a certified Italian transcript translation cost?+

Certified Italian transcript translation starts at $24.95 per physical page. A page is one physical page of the source document. CertTranslate never re-counts a dense page as two.

How long does Italian transcript translation take?+

Most 1–3 page orders are delivered within 24 hours — included in the price. We confirm the timing for longer or hard-to-read transcripts before you pay.

Does WES require a translation of my Italian transcript?+

WES asks for translations when school records are not issued in an accepted language. Send the translation with the source record, and follow the WES file list for your country and credential.

Will my Italian transcript translation be accepted?+

Accepted — or your money back. If a school or agency rejects the translation for a translation-related reason, send us its notice and we will revise the file free. If it is still rejected for that reason, we refund the translation cost. The school or agency still decides whether your record meets its rules.

Do you convert Italian grades into a U.S. GPA?+

No. Every voto stays on the 18–30 scale with its /30 denominator, and 30 e lode keeps its distinction. WES and ECE require the original grades and apply their own conversion tables.

Should I upload every semester and continuation page?+

Yes. Upload all terms, continuation sheets, grading legends, signed pages, and back sides that contain text or stamps. We translate the full record you provide.

What is the difference between an esame di profitto and an idoneità?+

An esame di profitto is a graded exam on the 18–30 scale that counts toward your average. An idoneità is a pass/fail assessment that carries CFU but no numeric grade. The translation keeps the two distinct, exactly as the record shows.

Do you translate the SSD codes on my transcript?+

Yes. Each SSD discipline code, like IUS/01 or MAT/05, stays on its course line together with the translated description, so the evaluator can classify the coursework.

Do I need notarization for WES or university admissions?+

Notarization is separate from certified translation. It only checks the identity of the person signing, so add it only when your school or agency asks for it.

Should I order my Italian diploma and transcript together?+

If the school or agency needs both, ordering them together keeps the student name, school, faculty, program, and degree terms consistent across both translations.

What if a grade, seal, or registrar note is hard to read?+

Upload the clearest scan you have. If we cannot read a detail safely, we ask for a better image or mark it as illegible. We do not guess.

Can I review the translation before certification?+

Yes. You can review the translation before we sign and stamp the certificate. We fix translation errors at no added cost, both before and after delivery.

Grading reference

How is the grading system shown on an Italian transcript?

We show grades exactly as they appear on the transcript. This table lists common scales, but the grading legend from your school is the final reference.
