Army AARTS


The Army/American Council on Education Registry Transcript System (AARTS) produces official transcripts for eligible soldiers upon request. The transcripts combine a soldier's military education and job experience with descriptions and college credit recommendations developed by the American Council on Education (ACE). According to AARTS, the transcript doesn't include awards, college courses, correspondence courses (unless reported by AARTS), training and job (MOS) history while enlisted with another service, or Army courses after reaching officer/warrant officer status. The AARTS operations center at Fort Leavenworth, Kan., says that the latter is subject to change pending the addition of officer/warrant officer information to its database.
