Credit versus Non-Credit

Credit

Credits are also referred to as Academic Credits, Credit Hours, and Semester Hours.  Each course is assigned a number of credits which generally indicates the number of hours per week the class meets; i.e., a three credit course generally meets three hours each week. Please refer to the College Catalog for course descriptions and credit hour determination.

Non-Credit

Non-Credit classes and programs do not lead to a degree or certificate, but are designed to assist individuals with their personal and professional development. At Delta those are usually offered through the Lifelong Learning Department.
