See below for the transcript ordering link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Usually, all credit from the JST and Community College of the Air Force is posted as either upper-division or lower-division elective credit. These credits can generally be used to fulfill elective requirements. If you believe the credit is equivalent to an MTSU course, then you may petition the department to accept the elective credit as a substitution for a specific required course. We can assist you with this process. Please contact the Transition Manager,&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:Jeremy.winsett@mtsu.edu\">Mr. Jeremy Winsett<\/a>.
