About us

Smart Credits was created to solve a frustrating and costly problem: most students are paying too much for college — and don’t even realize they have better options. They often feel overwhelmed by the transfer process, confused by degree requirements, and unaware of the many credit-saving options available to them.

After more than 20 years working behind the scenes in higher education, our team kept seeing the same thing: well-meaning students and families navigating college blind. Misguided by outdated systems and unclear advice, they wasted time, money, and momentum — often earning credits that didn’t count or signing up for classes they didn’t need.

We knew there had to be a better way.

Smart Credits was built to give students the clarity and confidence they’re missing — with real strategies, real tools, and real support. No pressure. No hype. Just an honest, guided training experience from people who’ve helped thousands of students succeed in the college system — and want you to do the same.

Our mission is to empower students to take control of their education through a smart credit strategy — saving time, reducing costs, and turning their degree into a focused, skill-building experience that leads to graduation and meaningful employment. Learn More →

Take Sam, for example — a 50-year-old warehouse supervisor stuck in the same job for years because he never finished his degree. Sam didn’t know alternative credit options existed, and the idea of going back to school felt overwhelming and expensive.

But once he discovered Smart Credits, everything changed. He mapped out a new plan in just a few days, earned 30 transferable credits in under six months, and enrolled in a fully online bachelor’s program — shaving more than a year off his graduation timeline.

Sam didn’t just save money. He got his momentum back. 

That’s what Smart Credits is about.
