Do Developmental Education (DE) Credits Apply To A Degree?
Although students receive grades for DE courses, those DE courses do not apply toward a degree or certificate. DE credits do not transfer to other institutions and DE grades are not calculated as part of the student's grade point average (GPA) shown on transcripts. However, DE grades are sometimes considered when applying for scholarships, financial aid, veteran benefits, etc.
DE coursework will help you acquire the skills and knowledge needed to be successful in college-level coursework.
