CREDIT FOR MILITARY TRAINING AND EDUCATION

Shepherd University is a Servicemembers' Opportunity College (SOC). SOC Consortium colleges and universities are dedicated to helping servicemembers and their families get college degrees.

We recognize the American Council on Education (ACE) recommendations for credit awards for military training and education.  The best way to submit evidence of military training and education is by requesting that an official record be sent to the Office of the Registrar, through one of the military transcript services:

For Army, National Guard, or Reserve (AARTS):
