Supporting Veterans, One Credit at a Time

We know that translating military experience into college credit can be confusing. Thanks to the Governor’s investment in military connected students, Tennessee colleges and universities can now use this tool for Prior Learning Assessments (PLA), to evaluate military service. This ensures that your hard earned experience is recognized across many, if not all, institutions in the state.

This Military College Credit tool is designed to give you a clear, transparent way to find the school that best recognizes your service and supports your educational goals.

First, select your service branch. Then, choose your Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) — or the closest related field — from the drop-down menu of military occupations. Next, enter your highest pay grade achieved and the date your initial training was completed. When you’re ready, click "Search." A customized list of potential credits available at participating Tennessee institutions will then appear.
