Capella University may accept Study.com credits that carry ACE (American Council on Education) credit recommendations, but transfer decisions are always made by the university on a case-by-case basis.


Most Study.com college courses are ACE- and NCCRS-recommended for transferable college credit, which means they can be considered for transfer to accredited schools like Capella. However, acceptance depends on factors such as:

  • How each course aligns with your specific Capella degree program.

  • Whether the course level (lower- or upper-division) fits your program requirements.

  • Capella’s current transfer credit policies and limits.


Because every student’s situation is different, it’s strongly recommended that you discuss your transfer plans with a Capella admissions or academic advisor before enrolling in Study.com courses. This ensures that the courses you take will apply appropriately toward your chosen degree.


Study.com makes it easy to earn affordable, transferable college credit through flexible, self-paced online courses — but confirming transfer eligibility in advance helps you stay on track toward your degree goals.
