What is an academic credit?

Academic Credits

An academic credit is the value of each college course you take.

The number of credit hours each course is worth can be found in the course description in the Graduate Academic Catalog and the Undergraduate Academic Catalog.

More information about academic credits can be found in the Undergraduate Academic Catalog in the Degrees and Required Credit Hours section or the Graduate Academic Catalog in the General Regulations section.
