How many college credits (if any) did you receive for your MOS or AFSC?

I was a medic and received 40 SH towards an Associate in Health Science from Coastline Community College. I only had to take 7 classes to graduate.

I had an excel sheet I kept for tracking since I was a 1LT. I ended up with:

58 Undergraduate Lower-Lever Credits
15 Undergraduate Upper-Level Credits
21 Graduate Level Credits.

I was able to get 15 graduate credits for ILE to count towards a masters program with CMU. UMUC also has a similar program.

It all depends on what your Major will be in college. Some MOS credits won't matter at all for certain degrees. Talk to a school recruiter and they can tell you how many credits you will receive for your MOS.
