CCAF – Community College of the Air ForceDifferences between the JST and the CCAF Transcript• CCAF is regionally accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools• Admissions offices often require a transcript for the CCAF before an Admissions
decision is made, however the JST is not a required document• CCAF Transcripts are usually treated the same as any accredited institution• CCAF course descriptions are in a course catalog, whereas other branches are
only listed in the ACE guide. (Both are listed in TES, the Air Force is under ‘Community College of the Air Force’ and other branches are under ‘American Council on Education’)
• Learning outcomes NOT included in CCAF catalog(therefore getting a syllabus could be difficult as they are not typically provided to the student)
