Course List
back to credit page
 
Below is a list of common university courses and our equivalents.  Your university may use different titles and course numbers, however the information below offers a general guideline.  A printable list of our curriculum is here.

The normal procedure is to present your university with your desired course substitution.  They will usually ask for a course curriculum and any specific requirements.  You need only to let us know of your specific requirements and we will prepare a document for your department.

You may still have to pay your university for the credits received, however your overall cost will be MUCH LOWER than through a university-sponsored programs and you should expect to save between $1,000 and $4,000.  You will also receive much higher levels of individual attention.

Upon completion of the course(s) we will issue you a certificate of study and a detailed report card with course grades and materials covered.
