Responsibilities of the SOCNAV College
Each SOCNAV member college agrees to:
- Be an institutional member of SOC and abide by appropriate
DoD and Navy policies.
- Serve as a home college for servicemembers and their adult
family members enrolling in degree programs that are part of
the SOCNAV system at specified locations.
- Limit academic residency requirements for graduation, regardless
of location or delivery option, to no more than 25 percent of
the total degree requirements with no final year or semester
requirement. If a SOCNAV institution offers one hundred percent
of an undergraduate degree online, that institution may require
active-duty servicemembers to take thirty percent of that degree
program to obtain academic residency.
- Issue a SOCNAV Student Agreement, which is an official evaluation
and degree plan, on the standard form for each SOCNAV student
who has completed two courses (6 semester hours).
- Award credit appropriate to the curriculum for Navy service
schools, Rates and Ratings, and NECs based on recommendations
in the ACE Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experiences
in the Armed Services (ACE Guide).
- Award credit appropriate to the curriculum for nationally
recognized standardized tests, such as CLEP, DSST, and ASE, based
on the recommendations in the ACE Guide to Educational
Credit by Examination.
- Permit the student to complete the program under the terms
of the Student Agreement, even after separation from active military
service and even if the college is no longer a member of the
SOCNAV system.
- Accept in transfer, with no individual prior approval, comparable
courses listed in the transferability tables of the SOCNAV Handbook, provided the
courses are taken after the Student Agreement is issued.
- Accept in transfer, with no individual prior approval necessary,
General Education elective courses, as defined in the SOCNAV Handbook, provided the
courses are taken with colleges after the Student Agreement is
issued.
