🎯 About MA 1200 – Calculus I at Indiana Tech
Does Indiana Tech accept Calculus 1 as a direct equivalent to their MA 1200 – Calculus I?
Yes. Under the published transfer agreement between UPI Study and Indiana Tech, UPI Study's Calculus 1 is recognized as a direct named equivalent of Indiana Tech's MA 1200 – Calculus I — not just elective or GE bucket credit. This is the strongest form of transfer recognition.
Will this transfer with full named-course credit, or just as elective?
Full named-course credit. The MOU specifically lists Calculus 1 as transferring as MA 1200 – Calculus I — meaning it satisfies that specific course requirement on your Indiana Tech transcript, not a generic elective slot.
What if I've already taken MA 1200 – Calculus I at Indiana Tech or elsewhere?
If you've already received credit for MA 1200 – Calculus I, Indiana Tech typically applies UPI Study's Calculus 1 as elective credit instead (at the registrar's discretion). Check with your Indiana Tech advisor before enrolling to confirm placement.

How does the transcript reach Indiana Tech?
Once you complete Calculus 1, UPI Study sends an official transcript in PDF format directly to the email address designated by Indiana Tech. Indiana Tech's registrar applies the agreed equivalency (MA 1200 – Calculus I) to your transcript. No third-party services are involved.
About this course

Understanding Calculus 1 for your Indiana Tech credit.

What is Calculus 1?

Calculus 1 is the study of change and accumulation. It introduces the idea of a limit, then uses limits to define derivatives and integrals, which are tools for measuring rates of change, slopes, area, and total amount in real situations.

How the course teaches you

Calculus 1 is delivered as a self-paced online course with video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, and the grade is based on 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. When you complete the course and your transcript is sent, Indiana Tech recognizes it as MA 1200 – Calculus I, which is a named course equivalency in its catalog.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The skills in Calculus 1 support the kind of quantitative work you may encounter in Indiana Tech programs such as Associate of Science and Bachelor of Science. At Indiana Tech, MA 1200 – Calculus I can help you move through degree requirements that rely on understanding change, rates, and accumulated quantities.

Skills you walk away with

Evaluate limits graphically, numerically, and analyticallyDifferentiate polynomial, exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric, and inverse trigonometric functionsUse the chain rule, product rule, quotient rule, and implicit differentiationAnalyze critical points, increasing/decreasing intervals, and concavitySolve optimization and related rates problemsCompute basic antiderivatives and definite integralsApply the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus

Taking this course toward Indiana Tech

After you finish the course, your transcript is sent for review and Indiana Tech applies the credit as MA 1200 – Calculus I when the course meets its transfer rules. Because this is a named course equivalency, it can satisfy the specific Calculus I requirement in an Indiana Tech degree plan rather than counting only as general elective credit. Indiana Tech accepts transfer credit from both regionally and nationally accredited institutions, but the total transfer is capped at 90 credits, or 75% of the degree. That makes this course useful for students planning ahead for programs such as Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science.

Who this course is for

This course is a good fit if you want to bring Indiana Tech credit into a degree plan and need a course that transfers as MA 1200 – Calculus I, especially if you are trying to stay within Indiana Tech's transfer limit of up to 90 credits. It is not the right choice if you need a course that Indiana Tech has not identified as curriculum-related or if you do not expect to earn a grade of C or better, since that is the level Indiana Tech considers for credit.
