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 Sociology is the study of how people live together in groups, how social rules and institutions shape behavior, and why societies develop patterns such as inequality, deviance, and cultural differences. It looks at everyday life through a social lens, asking how family, school, work, government, race, gender, and other forces influence individual choices and opportunities.
Introduction to Sociology is a self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam. The grade is based on 20% quizzes, 30% assignments, and 50% the final exam, so students can see exactly how the course is evaluated before they begin. After completion, the transcript credit is reviewed by SUNY Empire State University and recognized as SOCI 1005 + Gen Ed: Social Science.
This course gives you a way to read everyday situations through a social lens, which can be useful when you are working with people, making decisions in family or community settings, or trying to understand institutions such as education, healthcare, and government. At SUNY Empire State University, that learning can count as SOCI 1005 + Gen Ed: Social Science and fit into programs such as an Associate Degree or Bachelor of Science.
After you finish the course, your transcript is sent for review and SUNY Empire State University applies the published equivalency as SOCI 1005 + Gen Ed: Social Science. That named recognition means the course is not just counted as transfer credit; it also matches a specific catalog course and a social science general education area in the degree plan. SUNY Empire accepts UPI Study courses on a course-by-course basis, and up to 93 credits may transfer toward the university’s degree requirements. This can matter when you are planning an Associate Degree or Bachelor of Science at SUNY Empire, because it helps you see where the course fits before you enroll.
This course is a practical option for students planning to bring credit into SUNY Empire State University and who want a named course equivalency rather than an elective-only result. It may suit people who are balancing school with work or returning to finish a degree, especially if they want to stay within SUNY Empire’s transfer ceiling of 93 credits. It is not the best fit if you need a course that transfers only as a general elective or if you are not working toward a SUNY Empire program.
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.
