Study.com college credits have been accepted at thousands of colleges and universities. We partner with over 50 schools that guarantee they’ll accept the transfer credit, but many students transfer credits to schools that aren’t official partners.
If you’re enrolled or planning on enrolling in a school, contact your advisor or the registrar to confirm course equivalencies in advance.
In general:
- General education courses (like math, English, and social sciences) are the most likely to transfer.
- Some major-specific courses may also transfer, depending on your college and degree program.
