Do credits from Kaplan University transfer easily?

I'm currently taking classes at Kaplan University and I might look to transfer to a different college in the future. Are credits from Kaplan generally accepted elsewhere, or could I face difficulties?

When it comes to transferring credits from Kaplan University, it can be somewhat variable as it depends on the receiving institution's policies. This is the case with any kind of credit transfer. Each institution has its own rules regarding which credits they will accept and this can be influenced by a variety of factors including the specific course content, the accreditation of the institution where the credits were earned, and the grade you achieved in the course.

Kaplan University, now Purdue University Global, is regionally accredited, which usually increases the likelihood that credits will be accepted by other institutions. However, it's not a guarantee.

If you're thinking about transferring, the best thing to do is to identify the schools you're interested in and contact their admissions or records office. You might also want to ask about articulation agreements, which are formal agreements between colleges that define how credits will transfer between them.

Remember, it's always important to obtain as much information as possible ahead of time to avoid surprises later on. The reality is there will likely be some credits that may not transfer or may not satisfy requirements for certain majors. But by doing your research beforehand, you can minimize any potential frustrations.
