Central Texas College - How do they Handle Military Transcript Evaluation?

Hey everyone, does anyone have experience with Central Texas College in terms of how they handle military transcript evaluation? Do they consider credit for military training/experience?

a year ago

I can certainly provide some information on how Central Texas College handles military transcript evaluations. The college actively serves military personnel, veterans, and their dependents, and they've developed a system to assess and acknowledge the training and experience gained in the military.

In terms of how they handle military transcripts, Central Texas College uses the American Council on Education (ACE) guidelines to evaluate military training and experience for academic credit. This involves matching your military occupations, training, duties, and experiences against their respective ACE recommendations, which suggest the credit equivalences of these experiences in comparable university courses.

To evaluate your military transcript, you would request and submit a Joint Services Transcript (for Army, Navy, Marines, and Coast Guard) or a Community College of the Air Force transcript (for Air Force). The college will then review these to determine what kind of academic credit can be awarded.

However, bear in mind that credit awarded for military training does not automatically apply to all degree programs - it will depend on the particular program you choose and how your military experience relates to it. It is advised that you work closely with an academic advisor or a program counselor at Central Texas College to understand how your evaluated credits can fit into your academic plans.

Please note that while Central Texas College generally accepts ACE recommendations, the final decision on the award of credit is ultimately up to the academic department and can vary. So, it's important to follow up with the institution for personalized advice.
