Are College of General Studies online courses part of the real University of Pittsburgh?
Yes! The online courses are administered by the College of General Studies, a college located on the University of Pittsburgh’s main campus. Our students are Pitt students, and are held to the same rigorous standards as Pitt students attending courses on campus. Your transcript will look the same as any other Pitt student’s transcript, and your diploma will look the same as any other Pitt student’s diploma. There will be no differentiation that you studied through distance education.
