Savings = credits × $295 (SUNY Empire State NYS resident undergraduate per-credit rate, verified from sunyempire.edu 2026-05-21). Out-of-state students pay $708/credit before grants. UPI Study does not have a formal articulation agreement with SUNY Empire State — equivalencies on this page are reproduced from SUNY Empire's public TES (Transfer Evaluation System) database. Final transferability is determined solely by SUNY Empire's registrar in line with their institutional transfer credit policies.
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.
Introduction to Java is delivered as a self-paced online course with video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with grading split evenly across Attendance, Quizzes, Assignments, and the Final Exam at 25% each. When you finish and your transcript is sent, SUNY Empire State University can review the course and record it as CSCI 2015, a named course equivalency already verified through published SUNY evaluations.
The Java skills in this course can support everyday problem-solving and technical work, especially if you are building toward a SUNY Empire Associate Degree or Bachelor of Science. Because SUNY Empire recognizes the course as CSCI 2015, the credit can fit into a degree plan there instead of sitting as an unrelated elective.
After you complete the course, your transcript is sent for review and SUNY Empire State University applies its course-by-course transfer process. If the evaluation matches, the university records the credit as CSCI 2015, which is a named equivalency tied to a specific catalog course rather than a generic elective. That matters because it gives you a clearer place for the credit in a SUNY Empire degree plan, whether you are working toward an Associate Degree or a Bachelor of Science. SUNY Empire accepts up to 93 transfer credits, or 75% of a degree, so this course should be considered as part of that overall limit.
This course is a good fit for students who want a structured first programming class and are planning ahead for SUNY Empire, especially if they want a course that already has the named equivalency CSCI 2015. It can also make sense for students who need transfer credit to count toward SUNY Empire’s 93-credit transfer ceiling. It is not the best choice for someone who is looking for advanced Java work without first covering variables, loops, conditionals, and object-oriented basics.
SUNY Empire State University accepts UPI Study courses for transfer credit on a course-by-course basis. These equivalencies are verified from published SUNY evaluations.
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 SUNY Empire State University.
