It depends. Contact the school for information about their program and whether it qualifies for degree credit, or for Federal education funds.
Enrolling in a degree or certificate program involves registering for courses at an accredited postsecondary institution to earn a credential. Degree programs provide comprehensive education (e.g., Bachelor’s, Associate’s) over 2-6 years, while certificate programs offer focused, skill-based training for faster career entry. Enrollment means having a student ID, paying tuition, and being registered for classes.
In order to qualify for Federal education tax credits, the school must be an eligible institution.
