Credit for Prior Learning (CPL) and Prior Learning Assessments (PLA)
There are several ways for students to demonstrate prior learning and earn college
credit for work experience, military service and/or professional training.
Several Credit for Prior Learning programs exist that provide Prior Learning Assessments.
At this time UNT and particularly the B.A.A.S consider credits from the following
external Prior Learning Assessments:
Military training and experience
Joint Service Transcript (JST) - Official academic record that contains college credit
recommendations based on military experience and training. UNT will assist students
with the process to obtain their Joint Service Transcript and have them sent to UNT.
