Savings = credits × $342 (SNHU's published online undergraduate per-credit rate). SNHU is not a signed UPI Study partner; it evaluates transfer credit course-by-course, and final credit awards are determined solely by SNHU's registrar.
Programming in Python is an introduction to writing instructions that a computer can follow. In this course, students learn Python syntax, how to work with data, make decisions with code, repeat tasks with loops, and organize programs with functions and modules. It also covers basic problem-solving ideas used in computer science, such as search, sorting, and recursion.
Programming in Python is completed online at your own pace through video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam. The grading is 20% quizzes, 30% assignments, and 50% final exam, so the course checks both practice work and cumulative understanding. When you finish and your transcript is sent for review, Southern New Hampshire University can evaluate it course by course and recognize it as IT1ELE – Information Technology Elective.
The course builds practical Python skills for handling data, writing functions, using loops, and solving problems with basic algorithms, which are useful in many work settings. At SNHU, the credit applies as IT1ELE – Information Technology Elective, so it can support degree progress in programs such as an Associate Degree or a Bachelor's Degree by counting toward elective requirements. That makes it more useful than a course that sits outside your plan, because it can move you closer to total credits needed for graduation.
After you complete the course, your transcript is sent to Southern New Hampshire University for course-by-course review. SNHU's registrar/evaluation process uses the verified equivalency chart to apply the course as IT1ELE – Information Technology Elective, which means it counts toward elective credit in your degree plan rather than a direct major course. That can help in programs such as an Associate Degree or a Bachelor's Degree, where elective space is often part of the total credit requirement. Keep in mind that SNHU allows up to 90 transfer credits, or 75% of a degree, so this course fits within that overall ceiling.
This course is a good fit if you want to earn SNHU transfer credit in an elective slot while building an introduction to Python. It is especially relevant for students who need flexible study and want to stay within SNHU's transfer limit of up to 90 credits, since IT1ELE – Information Technology Elective counts toward the 75% maximum that can transfer. It is not the best choice if you need a course that is guaranteed to fulfill a specific major requirement at SNHU rather than an elective.
Southern New Hampshire University accepts UPI Study courses for transfer credit on a course-by-course basis. These equivalencies are verified from SNHU's evaluation chart.
This is a verified course equivalency, not a formal partnership. Transfer credits are never guaranteed and are determined solely by the university's registrar.
Enroll for $250 (or use a UPI Study subscription), finish in 28–30 days, and transfer 3 credits to Southern New Hampshire University.
