Savings = credits × $354 (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 a self-paced online course built on video lessons, with quizzes and assignments along the way and a final exam at the end. Quizzes count for 20% of the grade, assignments for 30%, and the final exam for 50%, so the exam carries the most weight. Completing the course produces a transcript that SNHU evaluates and recognizes as IT1ELE – Information Technology Elective.
The course covers data types, decision structures, loops, functions, modules, and basic algorithms such as search, sorting, and recursion, along with I/O operations and data work. At SNHU, the credit lands as an elective, so it fits into the elective portion of an Associate Degree or Bachelor's Degree plan. Students who plan to move into technical work can use it as an early foundation within either program.
After you finish the course, your transcript is sent to SNHU, where the registrar applies it as IT1ELE – Information Technology Elective. That recognition means the credit counts toward total credit hours and elective requirements in your degree plan, whether you are pursuing an Associate Degree or a Bachelor's Degree. SNHU is not a signed partner, so each course is evaluated individually on a course-by-course basis. Transfer credit at SNHU is capped at 90 credits (75%), and this course counts toward that ceiling.
This course suits working adults who already hold some college credit and want to finish a degree at SNHU at a lower cost, since a 3-credit elective at the $354 per-credit rate equals $1,062 in tuition. It is also a reasonable choice for students who want a programming credit without enrolling in a full computer science sequence. It is not the right fit for anyone who needs a required core course or a credit that satisfies a specific major requirement, because the recognition is an elective equivalency. Students should also keep in mind that SNHU accepts up to 90 credits (75%) in transfer, so this course has to fit within that limit alongside other transferred work.
Southern New Hampshire University accepts UPI Study courses for transfer credit on a course-by-course basis. 46 equivalencies come from SNHU's Work & Life Experience database; the rest are recommended by UPI Study.
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.
