I can't say for any of the above colleges, you will have to contact their admissions people. I do know that a friend of mine got out and went to Texas A&M and they did not accept hardly anything.

I got three credit hours from the University of South Carolina for a senior level mechanical engineering elective.....this was before USC had the nuke engineering program so I'm sure things are different today.  Your best bet is to directly contact each university you are interested in and speak to one of their representatives who will be able to give you the most recent gouge.

Thanks GC. Did you go STA-21? If so did you get in state tuition at USC?

I was commissioned via the old enlisted commissioning program (ECP).  I was active duty while attending USC, and had to pay my on tuition.  Doesn't STA-21 pay your tuition?

I actually had better then in-state tuition rates at USC.  Active duty military paid roughly half of the in-state tuition rate.  I graduated in 1998, so, you'll need to check into that.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

STA-21 pays up to $10K per year of tuition, books, and fees. You also stay active duty at your current pay grade and receive BAH and BAS. I was wondering if universities cut active duty students a break on tuition (at least give in-state rates).
