Harvard Extension School is it the same as Harvard University?

No.

It's generally an expermental or off the beat and track class offered by an outsider, sometimes not even by a MAster Teacher.

It can serve as college credit, that's up to the school.

It's more like classes given at a Hostile.

It does run 20 semester credit hours (usually 3 hours a night one night a week)

A friend of mine who has a B.S. in Chemistry and is one of the formost experts on cinema history and has run one of America's biggest archives of film extant proposed a course to UCLA extention on History of Comedy in Film and he had to pick a text book and do a syllubus and run the class like a real class and have a mid-term and final.

He screened a lot of film from his own archive.

He got the same pay as any lecturer.

But with his B.S. in Chemistry he generally would not be allowed to teach a lower division day course at UCLA in Cinema, although he's a huge expert with literally a homeschooled and unschooled PH D in the topic. At his college he took a Cinema History course taught by none other than Hans Richter (a Dadist founder).

He has a personal library of 400 history texts on Film, TV, Radio and Movies.

And he's read them all.

So read the course description and see if it is accepted as credit.

You can generally expect the course to be very "real world" and not as academic and those teaching the Extension generally come from the Real World.
