Spanish term

Calificación de aprobada por unanimidad

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Certificates, Diplomas, Licenses, CVs
It's a certificate:

What would be the correct way to say that in English?

The entire sentence says:
"XXX (name) secretario del jurado que examinó a XXX (name) para optar por el título de LICENCIADA EN XXX
Hace constar que obtuvo la calificación de aprobada por unanimidad"
Loreta Saddi (asker) Aug 27, 2022:
it's called Constancia de examen from Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico
AllegroTrans Aug 27, 2022:
Context needed We need to know what kind of certificate this is and which country it's from please. Even better if you can tell us the name of the awarding authorrity, university or whatever.
Barbara Cochran, MFA Aug 27, 2022:
Does this have anything to do with successfully defending a thesis?

Proposed translations

Selected

awarded a pass grade by unanimous vote (of the Examination Board)

Licencia in Lat. Am. often refers to the law, Lic. > licenciada being a (woman) lawyer, though the subject isn't given.

The unanimity refers to an Examination Board or Committee vote - also common at UK universities. See the previous ProZ answer in the first web ref.

PS No need to comment if you don't know.
Example sentence:

La universidad xxx otorga a xx el título de xxx, en atención a que demostró tener hechos los estudios requeridos por la ley y haber sido ***aprobada por unanimidad de votos en el examen profesional***

passed her'his thesis defense by unanimous agreement of the exam committee/thesis jury

Think this is what it must be, since you said it has to do with a student at the university level.
Peer comment(s):

neutral AllegroTrans : Isn't the correct expression "defended his/her thesis"?
