Savings = credits × $136 (Nexford BBA total $16,320 ÷ 120 credits, US/Canada/China region, from Nexford University Catalog 2026).

Database Programming is the study of how information is stored, organized, and retrieved in database systems. In this course, students learn SQL and database design principles so they can create tables, add and update data, and write queries that answer real questions from stored data. It also covers how to keep databases accurate, efficient, and secure.
Database Programming is taught through structured instruction in SQL and database design, with graded work split across attendance, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam: 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. When you complete the course and send your transcript to Nexford University, the credit is reviewed as a Technology Elective, so it can be applied as elective credit in a Nexford degree plan rather than as a direct major requirement.
The course builds practical skills for storing, organizing, and retrieving information, which is useful in settings where people work with data every day. At Nexford, that learning can support progress in programs such as the Associate of Applied Science or Bachelor of Business Administration because the course is recognized as a Technology Elective and counts toward elective requirements and total credit hours.
After you finish Database Programming, your transcript is sent for review and Nexford University evaluates it through its transfer process. Nexford's registrar applies the course as a Technology Elective, which means the credit goes toward elective requirements and total credits in the degree plan, rather than replacing a specific required course. That can help students in programs such as the Associate of Applied Science or Bachelor of Business Administration make progress while staying within the 90-credit transfer limit. Nexford also offers a free, no-obligation transfer credit evaluation, and its policy allows up to 75% of an undergraduate program to transfer.
This course is a good fit for students who want to move credits toward Nexford while also learning SQL, database design, and data security basics that can support an elective slot in a degree plan. It is especially relevant for people who need to stay within Nexford's transfer ceiling of up to 90 credits, or 75% of an undergraduate program, and want a course that can fit into a Technology Elective area. It is not the best choice for someone looking for a course that transfers as a specific core requirement at Nexford.
Nexford University is DEAC-accredited and offers a free, no-obligation transfer credit evaluation. Its flexible policy lets you transfer up to 75% of an undergraduate program toward your degree.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Final credit awards are determined solely by the receiving university's registrar.
