Military Credit Fast Application Streamlined for Potential Students by Park University
Park University Introduces Military Credit Fast App for Accelerated Degree Completion
Park University, a long-standing supporter of higher education for service members, has developed a new tool called the Military Credit Fast App. This innovative online application is designed to assess military training and experience, estimate undergraduate students' graduation dates, and provide an estimate of earned military credits for those who have served in the armed forces.
The Military Credit Fast App reviews military education, training, and occupational experiences, referencing standardized transcripts like the Joint Services Transcript (JST) or the Community College of the Air Force Transcript. By doing so, it translates prior learning into academic credit, accelerating the credit evaluation process for military students. This streamlined approach allows students to understand how much of their service counts towards their degree requirements and to receive an estimated graduation date based on that credit.
While the Military Credit Fast App provides an estimate, it is important to note that it is not a replacement for an official transcript review by Park University's Registrar's Office. The data provided by the app is based on the information gathered by the Registrar's Office, and the official assessment of credit is based on the prospective student's official transcript(s). The estimated graduation date depends on the number of credit hours taken each term or semester.
The Military Credit Fast App is accessible online for prospective students to use. It is essential to note that the data it provides is not final and may be subject to change upon official transcript review by Park University's Registrar's Office. The app uses the American Council on Education's evaluation of selected military specialty/classification code training and experience to make its estimates. The credit awarded through the Military Credit Fast App varies based on occupation, skill level, and completed military courses.
Park University's commitment to making higher education accessible for service members is evident in the development of this tool. By providing a way for military students to estimate their earned military credits and potential graduation date, the Military Credit Fast App helps veterans and active-duty members leverage their military background towards completing degrees faster.
The University has a long-standing relationship with the U.S. military, dating back to World War I, when it accepted young men who enlisted in the U.S. Army's Student Army Training Corps. Today, Park University continues to support service members, offering flexible online and on-campus programmes, and now, with the Military Credit Fast App, providing an efficient way to translate military training and experience into academic credit.
The Military Credit Fast App, introduced by Park University, not only assesses military training and experience but also estimates the graduation dates of undergraduate students who have served in the armed forces. This application is instrumental in helping veterans and active-duty members leverage their military background towards faster degree completion, as it translates prior military learning into academic credit through references from standardized transcripts like the JST or the Community College of the Air Force Transcript.
