Current and former service members may receive college credit for prior education or military experience acquired while in service to our country. This means you could spend less time and money in earning your degree.
A veteran with an honorable discharge from active duty can receive such credit in accordance with ACE (American Council on Education). ACE collaborates with the Department of Defense (DoD) to review your training and experiences in order to recommend appropriate course credit.
Veterans should contact the Records and Registration Office at WSC for further assistance.
