Partnerships, Affiliations, and Agreements

As an institution, APUS embraces and supports lifelong learning for its students, staff, and faculty. It is our belief that memberships and affiliations with organizations in our community help to ensure that:

In addition to professional partnerships, institutions of higher education often enter into agreements with other colleges and universities or organizations in order to facilitate ease of transfer of credit and academic planning. These agreements can be designed several different ways. A cooperative agreement—this might also be called an Articulation Agreement or Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)—indicates some level of partnership between the organizations and details the obligations and responsibilities of each party. An articulation agreement specifies exactly how transfer credit will be accepted from one institution to another, and how it will be applied to a degree program. These agreements may be written in terms of specific courses or entire programs. Agreements such as these not only ease transfer between two schools; they also offer the student an opportunity to more effectively plan their academic career and minimize a loss of credit. Additional details regarding academic partnerships can be found at the transfer credit evaluation center.

APUS will accept transfer credit for non-traditional learning as recommended by the American Council on Education or as validated by CLEP or DANTES exams. In order to fully recognize training that may be applicable to an academic degree, APUS has evaluated several military education programs in several areas and agreed to award academic credit above and beyond that which is recommended by the American Council on Education.

APUS has developed partnerships, affiliations, or agreements with the following institutions or organizations.  When noted the relationship is specific to AMU or APU, otherwise it applies to the entire university system.
