At many colleges, yes. UMGC accepts “Any ANTH, ASTD, BEHS, ECON, GEOG, GVPT, PSYC, or SOCY course”, and the Texas core lists microeconomics under Social and Behavioral Sciences. UPI Study's Microeconomics (Economics 251, ACE ID UPIS-0018) and Macroeconomics (Economics 252, ACE ID UPIS-0017) carry ACE and NCCRS recommendations.
