Prior College Credit (PCC)
A PCC Evaluation is a comprehensive course-by-course evaluation of official transcripts from previously attended college(s). The evaluation is based on the student鈥檚 educational goal and general education plan.
An evaluation request is initiated with Academic Counseling. To initiate the request, the following criteria must be met:
- Be currently enrolled at 大象视频 College. Veteran/Military affiliated students are exempt from this requirement.
- Submit all official transcripts from regionally accredited institutions.
Once all official transcripts are on file, meet with an academic counselor. A counselor will submit the request to the Evaluations Office for review. Once the evaluation is completed, the student and counselor will be notified via email. The student may then make an appointment with their counselor to review all evaluated coursework. This process may take up to 12 weeks.
Military Transcripts/DD-214
Students identifying as Veterans of the Armed forces can submit their Joint Services Transcript (JST), Community College of the Air Force, or DD-214 to the Veterans Service Office for evaluation.
