<p>Hi, I'm from Brazil and I would like to study in USA. I took the toefl, sat... But I have a question about letters of recommendation. I want to apply for
4 colleges. Do I have to translate every letter? I was thinking about if I could translate some letters and later take xerox and send to colleges. This way I would translate just two or three letters. Because maybe can get expensive. Is there another way? The same thing happens to school report. What do you guys do? I would be very grateful.
Sorry for my grammar mistakes.</p>
<p>Actually you can’t translate your letters yourself. The colleges require official translations along with the original letters. </p>
<p>Where do you live in Brazil? I know that in Rio de Janeiro the Fulbright Comission translates documents. Anyway you’d have to pay for both the translation and the extra copies. </p>
<p>BTW, which colleges are you applying to?</p>
<p>I live in Rio de Janeiro. Many thanks you helped me alot !
I’m translating the letters tomorrow, maybe. I know a place in Rio de Janeiro too.
I’m applying for Washington University, Ucla, Chicago, Brown.</p>
<p>are you brazilian?
Again: thanks.</p>
<p>Yes. I live in Rio as well. But I’m applying as a transfer student.</p>
