Transfer Your Credits with Confidence

Gateway Education courses are ACE-recommended and designed to transfer to accredited colleges and universities. Confirm your school's policy and move closer to your degree.

How Credit Transfer Works

Follow these three simple steps to successfully transfer your Gateway Education credits to your degree program.

Check Your School

See if your college is a Gateway partner or accepts ACE®-recommended credits. Partner schools list specific course equivalencies.

Get Pre-Approval (Recommended)

Send your school the Gateway course name/description/syllabus and ACE® credit recommendation for review before you enroll.

Complete & Transfer

Finish the course with a 70%+ final grade, then request your transcript (Gateway Student Record or official ACE/Credly). Transcript delivery is electronic.
