VALOR Act Academic Credit Evaluation Policy

UMass Boston appreciates the experience and perspective our veterans bring to the campus. As part of the VALOR Act, your basic military training earns you transfer credits. Additionally, courses you took while in service and job related training are evaluated for transfer credits. Accepted transfer credits will be found on your transfer credit evaluation report.

Your military education and experiences will be evaluated for transfer credit based on UMass Boston’s transfer credit policies. If additional materials or information is required, our admissions staff will notify you.

Please provide:

• An official copy of your military transcripts
  • For the Army, Coast Guard, Navy, and Marines: Joint Services Transcript (JST)
  • For the Air Force: Community College of the Air Force
• Transcripts from any college-level work that you have completed

Send your College/University transcripts to:
