Transfer of CCAF credits to colleges?

I have some credits from the Community College of the Air Force (CCAF) and I'm looking to transfer them to a four-year college. Which institutions are known for accepting CCAF credits smoothly? I want to ensure my work so far isn’t wasted!

Many four-year colleges and universities recognize the value of Community College of the Air Force (CCAF) courses and are open to accepting these credits. However, the acceptance of credits varies by institution and by program and depends on the specificity of your coursework in relation to your intended major.

Several institutions have established programs that facilitate the transition for military students. For instance, institutions like the University of Maryland Global Campus (UMGC), American Military University (AMU), and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University are known for their military-friendly policies, including robust credit transfer policies which make it easier for service members to transition.

Another factor to consider is your intended major. For example, if you're looking to pursue a degree in Engineering, a college with a strong engineering program may be more fitting. However, this college might be more selective in which credits transfer smoothly.

Remember the institution's policy on credit transfer is only one aspect to consider while choosing a college. Factors like degree programs, financial aid, and campus culture are also important.

Consult with the admissions teams in your colleges of interest and the education or transition assistance offices at your military branch to facilitate the smooth transfer of your credit.

Also, consider making use of a degree plan or degree mapping service - these can help outline exactly what credits will transfer for your intended major and how many more classes you'll need to complete your degree.
