Intro to Biology 1 is an introduction to how living things are built, how they work, and how scientists study them. It covers the basic chemistry of life, cells, energy use, genetics, and the processes that allow organisms to grow, reproduce, and respond to their environment.
Intro to Biology 1 is delivered in a self-paced online format with video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam weighted 20% Quizzes, 30% Assignments, and 50% Final Exam. As you complete the course, the work appears on your transcript and can be sent to University of Arkansas Grantham for review. At UAG, approved transfer credit for this course is applied as Biology Elective (100 Level), which counts toward total credit hours and elective requirements.
The course builds practical understanding of cells, genetics, energy use, and how scientists test ideas, which can help in any program where you need general science credit rather than a major-specific lab sequence. At University of Arkansas Grantham, that credit lands as Biology Elective (100 Level), so it can support degree progress in programs such as the Associate of Applied Science or the Bachelor of Business Administration. For students balancing work and school, this kind of elective credit can free up room later in the degree plan.
After you finish, the transcript is sent for University of Arkansas Grantham's course-by-course review. If the coursework and grade meet UAG's transfer rules, the registrar applies it as Biology Elective (100 Level), and UAG awards transfer credit for equivalent coursework with a grade of C or better. Because this is an elective equivalency, it counts toward total credit hours and elective requirements in your degree plan, which can help you move through programs like the Associate of Applied Science or Bachelor of Business Administration. UAG allows up to 90 transfer credits, or 75% of a degree, so this course should be considered within that overall ceiling.
This course is a fit for students who want a biology credit that UAG will treat as an elective rather than a direct major requirement. It is often useful for degree-completion students, career changers, and others who need to build toward UAG's 90-credit transfer maximum without taking a course that must match a specific biology sequence. It is not the best choice if your program requires a lower-division biology course with a more exact subject match than Biology Elective (100 Level).
University of Arkansas Grantham, part of the University of Arkansas System, has been DEAC-accredited since 1961 and accepts ACE-recommended credit. Transfer credit is awarded course-by-course for equivalent coursework with a grade of C or better.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Final credit awards are determined solely by the receiving university's registrar.
