Military Credit
A maximum of 30 semester hours of credit may be accepted for college-level courses taken under the auspices of the U.S. military services. Credit may also be awarded to veterans of military service who have successfully completed coursework at U.S. military service schools. A Joint Services Transcript (JST), DD214, or official military service school transcript must be submitted. These documents are evaluated by the Office of the Registrar according to recommendations from the American Council on Education in accordance with UNC guidelines.
Any credit submitted and approved from Military Service will be placed on the student's academic transcript and will apply towards the total units needed for graduation. This may reduce the number of credits a student may take towards elective credit for a degree. Once credit has been awarded, it cannot be removed from the student's academic record.
Military credit is counted as non-residency transfer work.
Approved military courses and occupations for guaranteed transfer credit are available at www.unco.edu/registrar/transfer/credit-exam.aspx.
