NOTES AND CONDITIONS

Military Credit Estimator: The Military Credit Estimator will provide an estimate of how many credits you may be eligible to receive based on your skill level/rate/rank in a given MOS/Rating/AFSC. ESTIMATES ARE NOT A GUARANTEE OF CREDIT. They are based on aggregate transfer credit evaluation results of prior students from the same branch, rank, and/or occupation OR educational mapping case studies of courses required for the selected military occupation and rank, ACE-recommended occupation credit, and enlisted professional military education (EPME); estimates include transfer credit from prior institutions, credit by examination, and credit from experiential learning. Exact transfer credit amount may vary depending on completed military courses and occupations as listed on your official Joint Services Transcript(s). All credits must be validated on official transcript(s) to be eligible for transfer.

Average Military College Credit Award: Source: Purdue Global Office of Reporting and Analysis, September 2021. 2021–2022 academic year. Includes all types of prior learning (military and other articulations, transfer credit from prior institutions) as well as experiential portfolio credit. Credit earned in an associate’s degree program through Purdue Global applied earlier as part of a pool of prior degree credit is not included in this calculation. The actual percentage may be slightly higher for students enrolled in bachelor’s degree programs. Individual experiences will vary. Purdue Global does not guarantee transferability of credit from any of the sources noted. See University Catalog for Prior Learning policy. Speak to an Admissions Advisor to find out how many credits may be eligible to transfer.

Military Physician Assistant Preparation Concentration: The coursework in this program concentration fulfills the prerequisites necessary to apply for admission to the Interservice Physician Assistant Program (IPAP). Completion of the program does not guarantee admission to the IPAP.
