About this course

Understanding Medical Terminology for your UAG credit.

What is Medical Terminology?

Medical Terminology is the study of the words used in healthcare to describe the body, diseases, procedures, tests, and treatments. It focuses on how medical terms are built from prefixes, suffixes, and root words, so you can understand what a term means even if you have never seen it before. The course also introduces common abbreviations and the language used across major body systems.

How the course teaches you

This self-paced online course uses video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with grading split into 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. When you complete the course and your transcript is issued, University of Arkansas Grantham recognizes it as HP114 – Medical Terminology, which is a named course equivalency rather than a general elective match.

How it helps beyond the classroom

Medical terminology helps you read clinical language more accurately, which is useful in healthcare settings and in any role that requires understanding diagnoses, procedures, tests, or treatment notes. At University of Arkansas Grantham, that credit can support degree progress in programs such as the Associate of Applied Science or the Bachelor of Business Administration by filling the specific HP114 requirement instead of leaving you to guess where the course fits.

Skills you walk away with

Break down medical terms into prefixes, roots, and suffixesInterpret clinical documentation by body systemUnderstand anatomical directional terms and body planesRecognize common abbreviations, radiology terms, and oncology languageIdentify pathology, cellular adaptations, and infectious disease termsUse cardiovascular, respiratory, skeletal, and gastrointestinal vocabulary correctlyRead provider-level diagnoses with greater confidence

Taking this course toward UAG

After you finish, your transcript is sent for review and University of Arkansas Grantham evaluates the course course-by-course. UAG’s registrar applies the equivalent as HP114 – Medical Terminology when the coursework matches and the grade requirement of C or better is met. Because this is a named course equivalency, it carries clearer placement in the degree plan than a generic transfer elective. Keep in mind that UAG allows up to 90 transfer credits, or 75% of a degree, so the HP114 credit needs to fit within that overall limit.

Who this course is for

This course is a practical fit if you are planning ahead for University of Arkansas Grantham and want credit that maps directly to HP114 – Medical Terminology. It can also help if you are trying to stay within UAG’s transfer ceiling of up to 90 credits, since a named equivalency is easier to place in a degree plan. It is not the best choice if you need a broad elective with no specific transfer target or if you are not working toward a program at UAG.
