What's the Difference Between Our College Credit and Enrichment Courses?

While both options include dynamic video lessons taught by renowned Georgetown faculty and access to support, the college credit courses contain additional coursework hours that allow you to earn college credit upon completion. We recommend selecting either the college credit or the enrichment option as some content overlaps between the two modalities.
