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.
Programming in C++ is an introduction to how computers follow instructions and how programmers write those instructions in C++. The course covers the basics of programming logic, algorithms, data types, control structures, loops, arrays, strings, and object-oriented programming concepts. It is a good starting point for understanding how software is built and how code is organized to solve problems.
Programming in C++ is an online, self-paced course built around video lessons, quizzes, an assignment, and a final exam. The grading breakdown is 20% Quizzes, 30% Assignment, and 50% Final Exam, so your work is measured through both regular checks and a cumulative assessment. When you complete the course and have your transcript sent, Post University can recognize it as CIS 240 – Programming in C++, which is a named course equivalency in the Post catalog.
The course builds practical programming habits that matter when you need to understand how software is structured, whether you are working toward an Associate of Science or a Bachelor of Science at Post. Learning variables, loops, arrays, and object-oriented programming can help you read and organize code more clearly, which is useful in technical coursework and in entry-level computing tasks. At Post, having CIS 240 – Programming in C++ on your record can support progress in a degree plan where computer science knowledge is part of the path.
After you finish, your transcript is sent for review and Post University applies the credit as CIS 240 – Programming in C++ if you meet the transfer standard. That named equivalency matters because it places the course directly into the Post catalog, rather than leaving it as an unspecified elective, which can make degree planning in programs such as Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science more straightforward. Post accepts up to 30 credits total, or 25% of a program, so this course should be counted as part of that ceiling rather than as unlimited transfer. Post is NECHE-accredited and requires a grade of 73% (C) or better for the course to transfer.
This course is a good fit for students who want a clear path into computing coursework and need a transfer option that Post already recognizes by name as CIS 240 – Programming in C++. It can also work for students who are planning carefully around Post’s transfer limit of up to 30 credits, since this course is only one part of the total that can move into a Post degree. It is not the best choice for someone who needs advanced C++ work right away or who is looking for a course that transfers as more than a single 3-credit equivalency.
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.
