Service-Members Opportunity College

CCRI recognizes the unique problems faced by military students whose jobs require frequent moves.

CCRI as a SOC member school makes it easier to obtain a college degree rather than just accumulate course credit by:

• Designing transfer practices to minimize loss of credit and avoid duplication of course work (CCRI allows for up to 75% of a degree's requirements to be transferred)
• Awarding credit for military experience
• Awarding credit for CLEP tests

CCRI, as a SOC member institution:

• Guarantees to accept other institution’s courses in transfer within curriculum areas such as management, computer studies, interdisciplinary studies, and others
• Awards credit for military service schools and occupational experience
• Acts as a "home college" and issues a Student Agreement that serves as a degree plan to enrolled students. The Student Agreement acts as a contract-for-degree, so that courses, tests, and military experience that are part of the degree plan are transferred back to the home college
