Get the credits you have earned! Be sure to turn in all transcripts to the TVCC Registrar's Office to get credit for your prior training and completed courses.
The Department of Veterans Affairs requires all GI Bill® recipients to have all of their prior education and training, military and civilian, evaluated for possible transfer credit when they first enroll at Trinity Valley Community College. While the VA gives you up to two semesters of enrollment to obtain official transcripts from your prior schools or military training, TVCC admissions requires receipt of all transcripts for full admission as a TVCC student. If we do not receive and evaluate your transcripts by the end of your second semester of enrollment with us, the VA will terminate all benefits paid to you and may require that all previously paid benefits be repaid.
Source documents for military education are armed forces official transcripts. You may use the information in the following chart to request a transcript directly from the appropriate branch of service:
