Military Training

 Providing military transcripts and a DD214 is mandatory for all veteran students using their VA education benefits to determine if credit may be awarded for military service or training. The Admissions and Records Office will automatically review these submissions as long as the student has applied to 91ºÚÁÏÍø and has declared a major. Credit will only be awarded for courses that are applicable to the declared major.

  • Up to 15 credits of boot camp credit, in combination with military experience and training, may be awarded to qualifying applicants who are currently active duty or were honorably discharged and completed more than one year of active duty. Refer to for additional information.
  • The Community College of the Air Force and Air University are regionally accredited colleges; credits from these colleges are granted.
  • Dantes Subject Standardized Tests (DSST) will be granted as indicated on the DSST Chart. For courses not on the chart, American Council on Education (ACE) recommendations will be considered.
  • Experience gained from military schools and other forms of military training will be evaluated using American Council on Education (ACE) and Joint Services Transcript (JST) recommendations in conjunction with other criteria required by non-traditional policies.
