Evaluated Degree Plan - Air Force/Space Force

Evaluated Degree Plan (EDP) - Air Force/Space Force

An EDP is required for approval of Air Force/Space Force tuition assistance (TA) use upon the completion of six (6) credit hours earned at PPSC.  Your EDP is a personalized plan which
lists the credit hours required for your declared degree program, including transfer credits and eligible credits from your Community College of the Air Force (CCAF) Web Progress Report. 
Please follow all steps below to request your EDP.

Who is eligible to request an EDP?

PLAN AHEAD:

Same day processing of an EDP is not a reasonable expectation.

Be mindful of Air Force/Space Force TA deadline requirements when submitting your EDP requests. Air Force/Space Force TA must be requested:

  • No sooner than 45 days prior to the start of your class(es).
  • And no later than seven (7) days prior to the start of your class(es)

Please allow yourself adequate time to gather and submit the necessary documents, and to receive your EDP.

Please include your student number in all communications (emails, etc.).

Eligibility (steps #1 and #2 are required):

1) PPSC students who have completed all necessary steps for admission to PPSC (application, placement assessment, etc.). 

AND

2) PPSC students who have completed six (6) credit hours of coursework at PPSC.

  • Credits earned at other institutions do not count as these six (6) credit hours.
  • You have a six (6) credit hour leeway before the EDP is required.
  • An EDP should not be requested and will not be created prior to a student completing this step (i.e., the six (6) credit hours mentioned above).
    • This does not affect eligibility to request Air Force/Space Force TA for your first six (6) credit hours at PPSC. 
    • NOTE:  An EDP is not the same as a traditional degree plan, which you have access to in your student portal at all times (under the dashboard tab, click on the degree check button).

Steps to request an EDP

Submit your CCAF Web Progress Report (not transcript) and transcripts from every university/college attended to ATTN:  PSFB-MVP - EDP documents at mvp@pikespeak.edu.

  • Click the link for directions on how to request your CCAF Web Progress Report
  • Unofficial transcripts are fine for this process as this is not for an evaluation of transfer credit to PPSC.
  • If you submitted official transcripts to PPSC, and they were marked as received and evaluated, and there are no other transcripts pending, you can skip this step; however, the CCAF Web Progress Report is still required.

Complete the online Evaluated Degree Plan Request Form (located at the bottom of this page) to request your EDP:

  • Verify your program of study:  
    • Your program of study at PPSC must match the degree plan your selected in the AIPortal.
    • If you need to change your degree with PPSC, click on this link for the change of major form .

  • Submit all necessary documents listed in "Step 1" above.

Upon the receipt of all necessary documents and verification of 6 credit hours earned/enrolled at PPSC, your EDP will be created and emailed to you in seven (7) business days.

Who can help me with my EDP?

Use the form on the right to request your EDP. Your EDP will be sent to the email addresses provided. MVP staff at Peterson Space Force Base can assist with general questions. Contact us at mvp@pikespeak.edu for assistance.

Air Force/Space Force TA requires attendance in a mandatory TA briefing prior to using TA funding. These briefings are not affiliated with PPSC; rather, they are required by the Air Force/Space Force, and must be attended through an Air Force/Space Force Base Education Center.

Please contact your nearest Air Force/Space Force Base Education Center for additional information on their processes and briefing dates/times.
