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 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.
At Post University, this course can come in as CIS 1XX – CIS Elective, so the work you complete in Introduction to Java is tied to a transcripted transfer credit rather than a standalone classroom experience at Post. The course itself uses video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with grading based on 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam.
For students moving toward Post programs such as an Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science, the course builds practical programming skills that support later study in computing and related fields. Because Post recognizes it as CIS 1XX – CIS Elective, the credit can help satisfy elective requirements and keep degree progress moving without adding a course that may not fit your plan.
After you finish the course, your transcript is sent for review and Post applies the credit as CIS 1XX – CIS Elective if you meet the transfer rules. At Post, that means the course counts toward total credit hours and elective requirements, which can help round out a degree plan in programs like Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science. Post accepts up to 30 transfer credits, or 25% of the degree, so this course should be considered as part of your overall transfer strategy. A grade of 73% (C) or better is required for the course to transfer.
This course is a good fit for students who want to start programming before transferring to Post and who are looking for credit that can count as CIS 1XX – CIS Elective. It can also suit degree-finishers and career changers who need an elective that may apply within a Post Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science plan, especially when working within the 30-credit transfer ceiling. It is not the best choice if you need a direct major-specific equivalent rather than an elective or if you are already near Post's transfer limit.
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.
