Which Grad Schools Accept Which Certificates for Credit - SophiaPrincess - 07-14-2025
I've earned a few Google and IBM certificates on Coursera, as well as lesser-known certificates on other sites. It would be helpful to know which Grad schools accept which certificates and how much credit they award. For example, Google tells me their Digital Marketing & E-commerce Certificate is accepted for 9 graduate credits at University of Maryland Global Campus, National University, Purdue Global and Excelsior University.
A master list of common certificates and their acceptance at popular schools would be useful. Does anyone have any certificates to add?

I know WGU's Cybersecurity Master's program accepts some certificates.
You can check what certificates work for each program here:
