What students are saying

I thought switching majors would cost me $20,000 and an extra semester. Keygrad did it in one summer for $3,000.

Questions

Before you plan around it

Will the credit definitely transfer?+

Every row comes from a published equivalency source, but schools update policies and cap transfer totals. Treat Keygrad as your map, then confirm the specific course with the destination registrar before enrolling — we link the source record to make that fast.

Where do the prices come from?+

Per-credit figures are derived from published tuition schedules and federal IPEDS data, normalized to a per-credit basis. They're estimates: fees, program surcharges, and residency nuances vary. The methodology page explains every assumption.

Which schools are covered?+

Every college with a published equivalency into University of Pittsburgh credit — 1,800+ institutions across all 50 states, from PA community colleges to out-of-state universities with online sections. Additional destination universities are on the roadmap.

Is this affiliated with any university?+

No. Keystone Credit is an independent tool built from public data. That independence is the point — we rank by what's cheapest for you, not for any institution.

Your degree doesn't care where the credit came from. Your wallet does.
