Does anyone know how or if military time can be turned into credits, do the aviation maintenance schools count and how do you get information? I was a 46 Electrician and got out in 79"

Speak to the Veteran Service representative at your school. They have the listing of military occupations and credits that are comparable.

You need a SMART report. Go to this link: https://smart.cnet.navy.mil/

The school will accept if it is a member of the Servicemember's Opportunity College (SOC), or something like that. I think most colleges accept the SMART reports.

For example, on my SMART report I got 4 hours of college credit from Recruit Training.
1 semester hour physical fitness
2 semester hours marksmanship
1 semester hour in orienteering/outdoor skills.

Then I got 7 more hours for my MOS training for a total 11 hours. Thats almost an entire semester (i.e. at least $2,000). My undergraduate school accepted all of them. PM me if you need more help.
