Yes — many Study.com courses can be used to fulfill major requirements, depending on your degree program and the college or university you plan to transfer to.


Here’s how it works:

  • Study.com offers both general education and major-specific courses.
    You’ll find courses in areas like business, education, psychology, computer science, criminal justice, and more.

  • Credit recommendations: Most Study.com college courses carry ACE or NCCRS credit recommendations, which means they’re eligible for transfer to over 1,500 colleges and universities.

  • Transfer evaluation: Whether a course counts toward major requirements is decided by your college’s transfer credit evaluation team.

    • Some schools, like WGU, have official transfer partnerships showing exactly which Study.com courses apply to specific degree majors.

    • Other colleges review courses individually to determine if they meet your program’s major requirements.


Before enrolling, it’s a good idea to confirm with your target school or advisor that your chosen Study.com courses will apply to your intended major. This ensures you’re earning credit that directly supports your degree progress.
