• ACE-transcript Credit: NAU accepts appropriate ACE-evaluated learning, including eligible military and professional education.
• JST Credit or Equivalent: Military learners may receive credit for documented training applicable to their program.
• Transfer Credit: NAU accepts academic credits from recognized or accredited institutions with a grade of “C” or higher (some programs may require a higher grade).
