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.
Introduction to Criminology is the study of crime as a social and legal phenomenon. It looks at how crime is defined, how it is measured, why people offend, how victimization affects individuals and communities, and how different theories explain criminal behavior.
Introduction to Criminology is a self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with grading split as 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. When you finish with a 73% (C) or better, the transcript can be sent to Post University, where the course is recognized as CRJ 101 – Introduction to Criminal Justice, a named course equivalency.
The course gives you a working understanding of crime, victimization, and criminal behavior, which can help in jobs or situations where you need to interpret criminal justice issues clearly. At Post, that credit can fit into degree planning for programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science, helping you move through a transfer path with a course that already has a specific match: CRJ 101 – Introduction to Criminal Justice.
After you complete the course, your transcript is sent to Post University for review. Post's registrar applies the named equivalency CRJ 101 – Introduction to Criminal Justice, which means the course is not just counted as generic credit; it is matched to a specific catalog course in your degree plan. That matters because it can slot into programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science with clearer purpose than an elective-only transfer. Post accepts up to 30 transfer credits, so this course should be considered within that overall limit.
This course is a good fit if you want a clear transfer route to Post and want a course with a named recognition rather than a general elective guess. It may be especially useful for students working toward Post programs like the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science, since the course maps directly to CRJ 101 – Introduction to Criminal Justice and Post allows up to 30 credits to transfer. It is not the best choice if you need a course that transfers without meeting the 73% (C) minimum, or if you need more than Post’s 30-credit transfer ceiling to complete your plan.
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.
Enroll for $250 (or use a UPI Study subscription), finish in 28–30 days, and transfer 3 credits to Post University.
