Scratch can definitely be consider for credit towards or programming. Professor David Malan at Harvard teaches Scratch in Harvard's introduction to computer science course (http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~malan/courses.shtml).
I hope this helps!

It might give you credit but you should ask your teachers or consulars. I think that to get into a computer science course in university you need to write a test that is java based. In any case, I am pretty sure that scratch won't be considered by schools that much and if you are seriously going into computer science I recommend that you learn some java.
Scratch is a good intro to programming though and you could use what you learned in scratch in other languages.
