Veterans interested in receiving college credit for military training must submit completion certificates, AARTS transcript, CCAF transcript, evaluation forms or other proof of completion to the Registrar. Evaluation is as recommended by the Guide of the Evaluation of Educational Experiences in the Armed Services, published by the American Council on Education. Copies of discharge and/or official service records must be submitted to the Registrar‘s Office for credit. Redlands Community College may accept, modify or reject military training credit, depending upon the evaluation. Transfer of Credit from other Accredited Colleges and Universities Semester credit hours earned at another college may be applied toward a degree or certificate program at Redlands Community College. The credit must have been earned from colleges and universities accredited by the HLC or other regional associations. The Registrar‘s Office will make the determination of acceptance of any course to be accepted for transfer to RCC. Credit will be evaluated from each individual college transcript. The number of credit hours to be accepted and the applicability of such evaluated credit will also be determined at that time. Applicability of evaluated courses to a particular program at RCC is made by the academic division of the specific curriculum in accordance with the recommendation for transfer from the Office of the Registrar. TRANSCRIPTS The Registrar‘s Office will send student transcripts upon the student‘s request, in writing, to any college or agency named.
