Our Best Answer - What is the difference between a degree and a certificate?

The main difference between a certificate and a degree are the number of credit hours required and the number of General Education courses required. Most certificates have fewer credit hour requirements than degrees and typically do not have the General Education courses associated to them. The degrees will have General Education courses and may have additional program specific courses as well.
