To help you make the most of your training or experience, our enrollment team will do an unofficial transfer evaluation of your JST and any college transcripts you already have. We do this before you apply, so you know what your plan of study looks like before committing to ODU.
Depending on your degree plan, these courses may count toward your major, general education requirements, or overall credit total.
