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 delivered as a self-paced online course with video lessons, quizzes, one assignment, and a final exam, weighted 20% for quizzes, 30% for the assignment, and 50% for the final exam. When you complete the course and your transcript is issued, TESU recognizes it as COS-2130 – C++ Programming, which is a named course equivalency in the TESU catalog.
The course builds practical programming skills in logic, algorithms, data types, loops, arrays, and object-oriented programming, which are useful for understanding how software is organized and how code solves problems. At TESU, that credit can fit into degree planning for programs such as the Associate of Arts or Bachelor of Arts, where a named course like COS-2130 – C++ Programming can support progress toward the degree.
After you finish the course, your transcript is sent so TESU can evaluate it for transfer. TESU applies the credit as COS-2130 – C++ Programming, which is a named course equivalency rather than a general elective, so it can connect directly to your degree plan. That matters because TESU accepts up to 90 transfer credits, and this course can count within that ceiling as you work toward programs such as the Associate of Arts or Bachelor of Arts. TESU's transfer policies are flexible, and this specific match gives you a clear place for the credit in the catalog.
This course is a good option for students who want a TESU transfer credit that carries a specific course match, especially if they are working toward a degree plan where COS-2130 – C++ Programming has a clear place. It can also suit students who want to use TESU's broad transfer policy, including the 90-credit limit, to move coursework into a degree program efficiently. It is not the best fit for someone who needs advanced C++ study beyond an introductory course or who does not need a TESU-recognized named equivalency.
Thomas Edison State University has one of the most flexible transfer policies in the country and accepts ACE & NCCRS credit recommendations. With a four-year institution's credits, you can fulfill all degree requirements except two required TESU courses.
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 Thomas Edison State University.
