Unfortunately, you are not going to get any sort of recognition for studying poker.
If you wanted to base an education around something poker related, study "Game Theory" (you better like statistics); It's really not worth it to spend money on credits towards a poker education, instead, I would suggest studying commerce with as much game theory as possible so you have something that companies will respect.
Remember, College/University is all about sacrificing 4 years of your life for a small piece of paper that MIGHT get you a job in your desired field; furthermore, who needs courses to learn about poker, you've got FTR.
