Air Force Can I Continue My Education
Helping Propel Our Airmen
At American Military University (AMU), we take great pride in being an Air Force-friendly college. Through our online programs, you can complete your coursework whether you are at home or deployed. We're also committed to saving you time and money by awarding transfer credit* for your prior college coursework and Air Force experience.
*The University reserves the right to accept or deny credits according to the policies outlined on these transfer credit webpages. Actual time to completion will be based upon transfer credit evaluation and eligibility.
Steps to Get Started

Complete Admissions Requirements
After you submit your admissions application, review the undergraduate or graduate admissions ecampus tutorial and relevant tuition checklists (financial aid and military TA). An admissions representative will walk you through the follow-up steps you need to get started.
"What made AMU different is that they got me to trust them, and the idea was that in the future things would work out because I trust this University. That has helped me shape my career after the military completely."

Your Degree May Be Closer Than You Think
Let us help you get the credits you deserve. We accept many forms of professional military education, non-academic experience, and training based on guidance from the American Council on Education. These credit recommendations appear on the servicemember's Joint Services Transcript (JST) or Community College of the Air Force (CCAF) transcript. We reserve the right to accept or deny credits according to policies outlined on our University website.
