Planning your educational goals and objectives can be a daunting task. To get started, download your Joint Services Transcript (JST), and then contact your State Education Services Officer (ESO) for further assistance.
ESOs help Soldiers by:
- Providing advice and counsel on individual education and career goals
- Determining cost-effectiveness of Tuition Assistance and other resources
- Providing information on school accreditation and recommending course options and methods of study
- Providing guidance, information and advocacy to maximize college credit for military training and experience

- If you haven't decided on your MOS yet, keep in mind that completion of MOS training can lead to college credit.
- To find out how much college credit is recommended for the MOS you're considering, view the American Council on Education (ACE) Military Guide.
- Once on the ACE website, click Start Your Search.
- In the Search box type the MOS you're considering (e.g., 42B, 92A), click on Show Advanced Options and under Military Branch select "Army" before clicking Search.
- Keep in mind, this is the amount of college credit recommended by ACE, and each college has different rules on the amount of credit they will award for military training experience.
