recommendations developed by the American Council on Education (ACE). In addition to name
and SSN, the transcript contains the following information:
- Current or highest enlisted rank
- Military status (active or inactive)*
- Additional Skill Identifiers (ASI) and Skill Qualification identifiers (SQI)
- Formal military courses
- Military Occupational Specialties (MOS) held
- Standardized test scores
- Descriptions and credit recommendations developed by ACE
