How Does Our College Join SOCNAV?
SOCNAV colleges provide degree programs on or accessible to
naval installations when Navy College determines that a need
for particular areas of study exists at a location. The process
for determining what curricula are offered and which colleges
will deliver them is as follows:
- Navy College identifies a need for a SOCNAV curriculum at
the installation.
- Navy College chooses an accredited college willing to offer
the degree program.
- Navy College requests that SOC invite the college to join
SOCNAV and to submit its curriculum for review.
- If the college is not a SOC member, SOC sends a letter of
invitation and an application for SOC membership, notifying the
college that participation in SOCNAV requires SOC membership.
- If the college is already a SOC member, SOC prepares the
curriculum exhibit in a standard SOC format and sends it to the
college for verification of its accuracy. The college's course
descriptions are then sent to other members of the curriculum
network for review.
- After all of the above steps are completed, SOC sends the
college an Institutional Agreement Form listing the requirements
for membership, the responsibilities of the college, and the
SOCNAV degree networks in which the college has agreed to participate.
- Upon receipt of a signed Institutional Agreement Form and
the completion of the course circulation for guaranteed transfer
of courses as denoted by SOC Category Codes, the college is accepted
as a SOCNAV member.
