About NextCourse

I built NextCourse after realizing how unnecessarily difficult it was to find course equivalents at other schools. What started as a simple plan to get ahead and protect my GPA quickly turned into hours of frustration. Every college had a different website layout, required preview logins just to view course details, and had outdated or confusing catalogs. Finding one equivalent class took forever — and when I finally did, it was usually far too expensive.

That's when I started wondering: "Why isn't there a single, centralized place where students can search for courses across every school?"

There wasn't.

So I built one.

NextCourse is the first platform designed to make course planning smarter, faster, and easier. Instead of spending hours jumping from site to site, you can now browse courses from dozens of schools — all in one place.

Search by keyword, filter by subject or tuition cost, and instantly find course equivalents that fit your academic goals. Whether you want to:

Pre-take a difficult course over the summer,

Fulfill requirements and get ahead, or

Lighten your load during the semester —

NextCourse helps you make the smartest decision for your GPA and your wallet.

It's about simplifying the process, saving you time, and giving students the control they deserve over their academic journey.

Helping students save Money, protect GPA, and make college Easier.
