Savings estimate = credits × $475, DSU's undergraduate rate of $1,425 per 3-credit course (2026-2027 Academic Catalog). Under the articulation agreement DSU does not charge tuition for the UPI Study courses it recognizes as credit. Credit awards are subject to DSU's registrar review and policy.
Introduction to Java is a first course in computer programming using the Java language. It teaches you how to write simple programs, use variables and data types, make decisions with conditionals, repeat tasks with loops, and organize code into functions and classes. It also introduces basic problem solving, arrays, input and output, and the foundations of object-oriented programming.
Introduction to Java is a self-paced online course built around video lessons, with quizzes, an assignment, and a final exam. Your grade combines attendance, quizzes, assignments, and the final exam, each weighted at 25%. When you complete the course, UPI Study issues a transcript entry, and Dunlap-Stone University recognizes that entry as General Education Technology under its articulation agreement.
The course teaches you to write, test, and debug small Java programs, use variables and conditionals, repeat tasks with loops, and organize code into functions and classes. Those skills transfer well to data-heavy roles, to automating routine spreadsheet or reporting work, and to reading technical documentation with more confidence. At DSU, the credit fulfills a General Education Technology requirement, so it can count toward degree programs such as the Associate of Arts: Business Administration, the Bachelor of Business Administration, or the Bachelor of Arts: Psychology.
After you finish the course, UPI Study sends your official transcript to Dunlap-Stone University. DSU's registrar then applies the General Education Technology equivalency, which satisfies a general-education requirement in your degree plan. Transfer credit at DSU is capped at 90 credits, or 75% of the degree, so this course counts toward that limit along with any other transferred coursework. At DSU's rate of $475 per credit, each transferred credit reduces the tuition you would otherwise pay for that requirement.
This course suits working adults who want to finish a DSU degree without paying for a technology requirement at the full DSU rate, and it also fits degree-finishers and career changers who need a gen-ed technology credit. Because DSU accepts up to 90 transfer credits (75% of a degree), students who are already close to the limit should check their remaining credit count before enrolling. It is not a good fit for anyone who needs a full programming sequence for a computer science major, or for anyone who cannot keep up a steady pace, since attendance counts for a quarter of the final grade.
Dunlap-Stone University recognizes UPI Study courses for credit in its undergraduate degrees under the signed articulation agreement. Each course below has the DSU course, general education category or elective credit Appendix 1 assigns it.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Students must be enrolled at DSU in good standing and meet course and program requirements. DSU is solely responsible for how it recognizes UPI Study courses.
Enroll for $250 (or use a UPI Study subscription), finish in 28–30 days, and transfer 3 credits to Dunlap-Stone University.
