Air University Associate-to-Baccalaureate Cooperative
SIU Extended Campus is excited to be a part of Air University Associate-to-Baccalaureate Cooperative (AU-ABC).
AU-ABC establishes partnerships between the Air Force and Space Force and civilian institutions to provide Community College of the Air Force and Space Force (CCAF) graduates with advanced education opportunities at the baccalaureate level. This program targets active duty Air Force and Space Force, Air Force Reserve and Air National Guard members. Degree requirements, however, may be completed after students retire or separate from the Air Force and Space Force. Students will work directly with the AU-ABC school to complete enrollment and degree requirements.
Each civilian university partnership has gone through a review process that links their AU-ABC programs to one or more CCAF degrees. Students work directly with the school to enroll and manage degree program progress. Upon completion of all requirements, the partnering institution will award the baccalaureate degree.
