Articulation Agreement

The purpose of this agreement is to provide graduates of the Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission (CJSTC)-certified training academies with college-level course credit, which can be applied toward an Associate of Science (A.S.) degree in Criminal Justice Technology at Seminole State College.

Student Procedures

Students who wish to receive credit for completion of either the Law Enforcement Academy or the Corrections Officer Academy must submit their Certificate of Completion to the Criminal Justice Program Manager for review and verification. Students must also complete a Request for Credit Transfer Form, which can be obtained from the Criminal Justice Institute in person or online. This form must be submitted by the Criminal Justice Program Manager to the Registrar's Office before credit can be posted to the student's transcript.

For credit to be posted to a student's transcript, the student must complete 12 hours of college-level course work at Seminole State after graduating from the Criminal Justice Academy.
