After earning 12 units of
credit in residence at Merced College, military veterans will be awarded up
to 12 units of credit for military training and experience. These units will
be recorded on the student’s Merced College transcript. This award will be
based upon the American Council of Education's (ACE) recommendations found
on the individual’s ACE Registry Transcript. The bases for awarding credit
for military training and/or experience are as follows:
Basic Training: The student will receive
two units of credit in Physical Education.
Other Military Training/Experience:
Merced College will grant a maximum of 10 units of general elective credit
Transcripts from other
accredited institutions of higher education will be evaluated and credit
will be granted according to standard college procedures. (NOTE: Community
College of the Air Force (CCAF) transcripts of Air Force veterans will be
evaluated in this manner and will not be subject to the above unit
limitations and residency requirements.)
Students seeking credit for
specific Merced College courses based upon military training and/or
experience must apply for Credit-by-Exam. See catalog for additional
information.
Students seeking to use
military training and/or experience in lieu of stated prerequisites must
challenge the prerequisite using the standard college process.
See catalog for additional
information.

services has developed a method for documenting military training that the
American Council on Education (ACE) has evaluated for college credit. For
