JOINT SERVICES TRANSCRIPT (JST)

Updated: 25 September 2019

 What Is It?

 The Joint Services Transcript (JST) is an academically accepted document

approved by ACE to validate a service member's military occupational experience

and training along with the corresponding ACE college credit recommendations.

 How Do I Qualify?

 All military members, current or former are eligible to receive a JST.

 What Do I Get?

 The JST contains a record of your military educational experiences, and helps

college registrars award college credit for learning gained in the military.

 The JST provides a description of military schooling and work history in civilian

language and serves as a counseling tool for academic and career counselors in

advising Service members and veterans and as an aid in preparing resumes and

explaining military work experience to civilian employers.

 The JST saves time and money by awarding academic credits, which means less

tuition to pay and less time spent in the classroom.

 The acceptance of American Council on Education (ACE) credit recommendations

varies depending on an institution’s policies, procedures, and degree requirements.

 How Do I Apply?

 Request a copy of your JST and submit your official JST to any institution located on

the “Official Transcript Request” page on the JST website at; https://jst.doded.mil/

 If you are missing an ACE accredited course you completed more than two months

(60 days) ago and it is an ACE accredited course, send a copy of all documentation

training certificates (DA-1059) and justification through the JST web site.
