What's the Difference Between Our College Credit and Enrichment Courses?
While both options include dynamic video lessons by renowned Georgetown faculty and access to support, the college credit courses contain additional coursework hours and allow you to earn college credit upon completion. We recommend selecting either the college credit or the enrichment option per subject as some content overlaps between course types.
