Credit for Prior Learning

Credit for Military Training

In alignment with the practice of the CSU Chancellor’s Office, Fullerton College certifies 3 units of transferable credit including full completion of Area E on the CSU General Education (GE) pattern for students who submit the Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty (DD-214) indicating the completion of basic training. The intention is to award credit for the “Lifelong Learning” experience veterans get in Basic Training, which is documented on the DD-214 form. In lieu of CSU GE, students can also use the 3 units of transferable credit toward completion of Area E on the Fullerton College AA/AS General GE pattern. In addition to GE, Fullerton College also will grant prior credit for the 1-unit PE Requirement for Graduation.
