Savings estimate compares Post University's $629/credit online undergraduate rate against UPI Study course pricing. Post requires a 73% grade to accept a UPI course; UPI credit applies to General Education requirements only (not Major, Core, Concentration, or Minor). Maximum UPI transfer: 15 credits into an associate's, 30 into a bachelor's. Final credit awards are determined solely by Post University's registrar.
Computer Concepts and Applications is an introduction to how computers work, how people use them, and how technology affects everyday life and work. It covers the basic parts of a computer system, operating systems, files, networks, the Internet, online communication, and common security concerns. The course also introduces broader ideas such as the social and ethical effects of technology and how computers are used in different workplaces.
Computer Concepts and Applications is a self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with grading split into 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. When you finish and the transcript is sent to Post University, the course is recognized there as GEN 1XX – General Elective (Post), so the credit appears as elective transfer credit rather than a major-specific course.
The material is useful in everyday work because it covers how computers, files, networks, the Internet, and security concerns function in real settings, which helps students handle common workplace technology more confidently. At Post, that credit can sit inside programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science as GEN 1XX – General Elective (Post), helping you move credit forward without losing time on a course that does not fit a required subject area.
After you complete the course, the transcript is sent to Post University and the registrar applies the credit as GEN 1XX – General Elective (Post). That means the course counts toward total credit hours and elective requirements in your Post degree plan, rather than replacing a required major course. Post is NECHE-accredited and accepts UPI Study's ACE & NCCRS-recommended courses for General Education transfer credit, but the overall transfer ceiling is 30 credits, or 25%, so this course should be planned within that limit.
This course is a good fit for students who want to bring a technology foundation into a Post degree plan and use an elective slot efficiently, especially if they are working toward a program such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science. It can also make sense for students who need a flexible way to earn transferable credit, since Post accepts the course as GEN 1XX – General Elective (Post) but only up to 30 credits, or 25%, may transfer overall. It is not the best choice for someone who needs a course to meet a specific major requirement at Post rather than an elective.
Post University is NECHE-accredited and accepts UPI Study's ACE & NCCRS-recommended courses for General Education transfer credit. A 73% (C) grade or better is required for a course to transfer.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Final credit awards are determined solely by the receiving university's registrar.
