Evaluation of Military Experiences
All current and former members of the armed forces have earned education credits and have military training transcripts. Vernon College (VC) will evaluate the military transcript received for each student, and award applicable credit.
Air Force service members need to submit a Community College of the Air Force (CCAF) transcript. Since CCAF is an accredited college, the registrar’s office will evaluate that document. All other military branches (Army, Marines, Navy, Coast Guard) will submit their Joint Services Transcript (JST). These transcripts will be evaluated by the certifying official in the VC Veterans Office.
Military transcripts may be obtained from the following websites:
ARMY, NAVY / MARINE CORPS, and COAST GUARD:

Vernon College is a participant in the COLLEGE CREDIT FOR HEROES (CC4H) program. VC highly encourages current and former military personnel to submit their military transcript to CC4H to have their transcript evaluated by subject matter experts for potentially more field specific credits from their military experiences. Information is available at
www.collegecreditforheroes.org.
Students who are receiving Veterans Administration Education Benefits are required to submit military transcripts for prior credit evaluation in order to be certified.
