The European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) was set up to harmonize the standards of diverse European countries, but has since evolved to become the most prominent standard unit of academic credit internationally. The system is implemented in the European Higher Education Area (49 countries, including the UK, France, Spain, etc), but the treaty governing the mutual recognition of degrees (the Lisbon Recognition Convention) has been ratified by 57 countries, including Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. While the Lisbon Recognition Convention creates treaty obligations for 57 countries to recognize each other’s comparable degrees, individual universities retain the right to evaluate the specific content of the degree for admission into their own programs. Recognition ensures your degree is treated fairly and transparently, but it does not guarantee automatic admission to every university.

The degree is regulated under the European Higher Education Area (49 countries), but the treaty governing its recognition (the Lisbon Recognition Convention) has been ratified by 57 countries, including Canada, Australia, and New Zealand as Woolf uses the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS). While the Lisbon Recognition Convention ensures that the degree is legally recognized in 57 countries, individual universities retain the right to evaluate the specific content of your degree for admission into their own programs. Recognition ensures your degree is treated fairly and transparently, but it does not guarantee automatic admission to every university.
Additionally, Woolf degrees are European-accredited and have been evaluated as equivalent to a US regionally accredited degree. While the degree is legally recognized in Europe, recognition in other countries (such as the US, Canada, or India) is not automatic and relies on local rules.

If you’ve previously completed eligible Udacity coursework, your study hours may already count toward the degree. Sometimes this process may involve additional work or remedial work depending on the courses you’ve completed, but if you enroll in the degree program, you may well be able to convert those hours into official academic credit.
