How do I check if my university accepts UPI Study credits?
Check our Find My College directory . If your university recognizes ACE & NCCRS credit recommendations, UPI Study courses qualify. You can also book a free call with our team.
How does UPI Study compare to a traditional university course?
A traditional university course in this subject typically costs $500–$1,500+ per credit hour and requires fixed schedules, campus attendance, and semester timelines. UPI Study covers the same ACE & NCCRS-recommended content at $250 total , with no deadlines and no campus requirement.
Can international students take this course?
Yes. UPI Study courses carry ACE and NCCRS recommendations — recognized by cooperating institutions in the U.S., Canada, the UK, and other countries. Students have submitted credits across 26+ countries.
🎯 About General Education Science at DSU
What is General Education Science at Dunlap-Stone University?
General Education Science is one of the general education categories required for DSU's degree programs. It covers coursework in the relevant academic domain — designed to give students broad foundational knowledge as part of a balanced degree. Students must complete a defined number of credits in this category as part of either the Associate or Bachelor's program.
Will Chemistry I fulfill DSU's General Education Science requirement?
Yes. UPI Study's agreement with Dunlap-Stone University lists UPI Study's Chemistry I (3 ACE & NCCRS Approved credits) as General Education Science credit. This appears on the DSU equivalency chart. The credit posts to your DSU transcript once UPI Study sends the official transcript.
What other UPI Study courses also transfer as General Education Science at DSU?
Several UPI Study courses fulfill DSU's General Education Science bucket — including Intro to Biology 1, Intro to Biology 2, and Physics I. The complete current list of equivalencies is on the DSU equivalency chart.
How many General Education Science credits do I need for my DSU degree?
DSU's general education requirements vary between the Associate (60 credits total) and Bachelor's (120 credits total) degrees. Within those, students must complete a defined set of GE credits across multiple categories including General Education Science. DSU accepts up to 75% of total degree credits as transfer credit, so you can fill most of your General Education Science requirement with UPI Study courses. Check DSU's current academic catalog for exact category minimums.
If I've already filled my General Education Science requirement, can Chemistry I still count?
Yes — if your General Education Science category is full, Chemistry I can typically be applied as elective credit at DSU's discretion, as long as you have not exceeded the 75% (90-credit) transfer maximum for your Bachelor's. Contact DSU's registrar or your academic advisor to confirm placement before enrolling if you are close to the transfer cap.

Dunlap-Stone University accepts up to 75% of degree credit requirements as transfer credit — up to 90 credits for the bachelor's degree. 68 UPI Study courses are recognized by DSU under the UPI Study × DSU articulation agreement, so you can stack a substantial portion of your degree before enrolling at DSU.
Do I need to enroll at DSU first?
No. You can take UPI Study courses with no DSU enrollment, no application, and no admission process. Take the course, earn the credit, then submit your transcript to DSU when you're ready.
How does the transcript reach DSU?
Once you complete Chemistry I, UPI Study sends an official transcript in PDF format directly to the email address designated by Dunlap-Stone University. DSU's registrar applies the agreed equivalency (General Education Science) to your transcript. No third-party services are involved.
About this course

Understanding Chemistry I for your DSU credit.

What is Chemistry I?

Chemistry I is an introduction to the substances that make up matter and the changes they undergo. It covers the structure of atoms, how elements combine to form molecules and compounds, how chemical reactions are balanced and measured, and how energy, bonding, gases, and physical properties fit into that picture.

How the course teaches you

Chemistry I is a self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam. Your grade is weighted 20% on quizzes, 30% on assignments, and 50% on the final exam, so the exam carries the most weight. Once you complete the course and the transcript credit posts, that credit is what Dunlap-Stone University recognizes as General Education Science.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course teaches you to read the periodic table for trends in ionization energy, electronegativity, and atomic radius, and to use dimensional analysis to convert units and check your work. Those habits carry into budgeting, reading data in business reports, and evaluating claims in psychology research. At DSU, the credit counts toward the general education portion of degrees such as the Associate of Arts: Business Administration, the Bachelor of Business Administration, and the Bachelor of Arts: Psychology.

Skills you walk away with

Use dimensional analysis and unit conversionsBalance chemical equations and solve stoichiometry problemsPredict trends in ionization energy, electronegativity, and atomic radiusDetermine reaction yield and compound compositionApply laboratory techniques and use lab equipment properlyExplain chemical bonding, molecular geometry, and intermolecular forcesInterpret gas behavior with the ideal gas law

Taking this course toward DSU

After you finish Chemistry I, the transcript is sent to Dunlap-Stone University, and DSU's registrar applies the General Education Science equivalency to your record. In practice, this means the 3 credits fill a general education science requirement in your DSU degree plan rather than counting as an open elective. Transfer credit is capped at 90 credits (75%) across all courses, so this course counts toward that ceiling. Check your degree audit after the credit posts to confirm how it is applied to your program.

Who this course is for

This course suits students who want a science requirement completed at a lower cost on the way to a DSU degree, including adults returning to school, students close to finishing, and people changing careers who need a credible science credit. DSU recognizes it as a general-education equivalency, and up to 90 credits (75%) may transfer, so it works best as one part of a plan that still leaves room for upper-level coursework at DSU. It is not a good fit if you need a chemistry course to satisfy a specific major prerequisite rather than a general education requirement, or if you want a light-math science course, since the outcomes depend on stoichiometry and unit conversion.
