Military Credit

Jacksonville State University may award academic credit for training completed during military service. The university makes military transfer credit decisions based off recommendations from the American Council
on Education's (ACE) Military Guide and campus academic units. Military Transfer Credits at JSU could be in the form of:

  • General Electives
  • Military Science units
  • Physical Education units
  • Direct Equivalencies

Military students who desire to have their military training evaluated for potential academic credit must submit their Joint Services Transcript (JST) or Community College of the Air Force (CCAF) transcripts to the
Office of Admissions. Once the JST or CCAF has been evaluated, each student should consult with their advisor to determine how best to use the awarded academic credit. Military students can expect up to 43 hours for prior military coursework/training, with an average of 3-10 hours awarded for specific course equivalents.
