Joint Service Transcript (JST) Credit

The U of U accepts credit for some kinds of military training as listed on a Joint Services Transcript (JST).  Posting JST credit can be helpful in some cases but not in others. For this reason the U of U requires a student to meet with an advisor in the Academic Advising Center to help them determine if and when they might post their credits.
