Military Transcript Links
AIU Online's Prior Learning Assessment Specialists (PLAS) will review and evaluate your military training, courses, occupational specialties and traditional education for college transfer credit. The evaluation will list the total number of hours you've earned. Your PLAS will then develop a degree plan that will show how your credits will be applied to your preferred degree at AIU Online. We will also identify ways for you to complete the remaining degree requirements.
We use official military transcripts to develop your degree program. You should request and maintain copies of your transcripts for your own reference. You can obtain official and unofficial copies of your military transcript using the appropriate links below: (Please note that some branches allow you to request and receive those transcripts online; others must be requested in writing.)

The American Council on Education is a coordinating organization helping institutions and organizations advance the higher education system. The organization ultimately helps individuals by evaluating and recommending institutional, and some non-traditional education and training, allowing accredited educational bodies to accept credit recommendations. We use ACE recommendations to award you transfer credit for your experience and training.
