CREDIT FOR PRIOR EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING

The University does not at this time accept or give credit for Prior Experiential Learning. However, students who wish to receive Veteran benefits must submit a statement of previous training to the school for consideration. All appropriate credit will be allowed and recorded on a veteran student’s enrollment record and the length of the course will be shortened appropriately.

In keeping with the policies of the Veterans Administration, we do accept up to 12-quarter credit units/hours of prior experiential learning for veterans. Award of prior credit is done on a case-by- case basis and is dependent on credit awarded by the Military for its schooling such as basic training, Officer’s Candidacy schooling, Command and General Staff etc., or appropriate, creditable prior military experience (e.g., service in a foreign war, service during wartime, continuous and prolonged service to the military, etc.). The veteran must request and provide the following:
• All transcripts
• Acknowledgement and receipt of military schooling
• A statement which explains prior experiential learning

The above items and experiences are examined, analyzed, and if appropriate may be applied to the area of study as part of the AUHS degree in the chosen area.
