Frequently asked questions

Everything about Anatomy & Physiology I Lab → UoPeople.

📚 About Anatomy & Physiology I Lab
What is Anatomy & Physiology Lab I?
A college-level laboratory course with eleven structured labs covering anatomical organization, cells, tissues, and the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, and nervous systems. It is Biology 211 Lab.
Do I take the Anatomy & Physiology I together with the lecture course?
Most programs require the lecture and lab together. Pair this with Anatomy & Physiology I (Biology 211).
What equipment do I need for the Anatomy & Physiology I course?
The course uses a home-based design requiring no specialist laboratory equipment. Details are in the syllabus.
Is there dissection?
No physical dissection is required. The labs use models, diagrams, and observation-based activities.
Will nursing programs accept a remote A&P lab?
Our A&P labs carry ACE/NCCRS credit recommendations and mirror on-campus lab work — students use them for pre-nursing requirements regularly. Your program's advisor can confirm your school's policy in minutes.
How is Anatomy & Physiology I graded?
Graded quizzes for each of the eleven lab sessions plus assessed lab work. 70 or above is required to pass.
How many credits is Anatomy & Physiology I worth?
Lab courses typically carry fewer credits than lecture courses. Confirm the value with your institution.
How long does Anatomy & Physiology I take to complete?
55 contact hours across eleven labs; typically 28–30 days.
Can I take the A&P I Lab without the lecture course?
It's designed to accompany the A&P I lecture course — most schools expect both to award lab-science credit.
How do labs work in an online A&P course?
Through virtual lab exercises, anatomical models, and guided activities you complete and submit online — no physical lab kit required.
Does this lab satisfy a lab-science requirement?
Yes — paired with the A&P I lecture course, it forms the lecture-plus-lab combination that lab-science requirements ask for.
How many credits is the A&P I Lab worth?
Typically 1 credit, matching how campus A&P labs are credited.
Is the A&P I Lab required for nursing prerequisites?
Most nursing programs require A&P with lab — which is exactly why we offer the lab alongside the lecture course. Take both together and you're covered.
🎯 About Elective credit at UoPeople
What does 'Elective credit' mean at University of the People?
Elective credit fills the elective portion of a UoPeople degree — credits required for graduation but not tied to a specific named course or general education category. Every UoPeople degree program reserves a portion of total credits for electives, which gives students flexibility to round out their program.
How many elective credits do I need for my UoPeople degree?
UoPeople's degree programs each define an elective credit minimum within the total (60 credits for the Associate, 120 for the Bachelor's). The specific count varies by program. Check UoPeople's current academic catalog for the exact elective credit requirement.
Can I use Anatomy & Physiology I Lab for UoPeople electives even though it's a science course?
Yes. The Articulation Agreement explicitly recognizes UPI Study's Anatomy & Physiology I Lab as elective credit at UoPeople, regardless of subject area. UoPeople accepts transfer credit across disciplines as long as the credit comes from an approved provider with NCCRS or ACE recommendations.
How many UPI Study courses can I stack as electives at UoPeople?
Up to the overall 75% transfer cap (90 credits for the Bachelor's). UoPeople doesn't impose a separate elective cap beyond that, so you can stack multiple UPI Study elective courses as long as they fit within total transfer maximum and your program's elective requirement.
Is elective credit 'worth less' than named course credit?
No — credit is credit toward your UoPeople degree. Elective credits count fully toward the 60-credit Associate or 120-credit Bachelor's total. The only difference is they fill the 'elective' bucket on your transcript rather than a specific named course. They have the same weight in graduation requirements.
🔄 About transferring to UoPeople
How many UPI Study courses can I stack toward my UoPeople degree?
University of the People accepts up to 75% of degree credit requirements as transfer credit — up to 90 credits for the bachelor's degree. 88 UPI Study courses are recognized by UoPeople under the Articulation Agreement, so you can stack a substantial portion of your degree before enrolling at UoPeople.
Do I need to enroll at UoPeople first?
No. You can take UPI Study courses with no UoPeople enrollment, no application, and no admission process. Take the course, earn the credit, then submit your transcript to UoPeople when you're ready.
How does the transcript reach UoPeople?
Once you complete Anatomy & Physiology I Lab, UPI Study sends an official transcript in PDF format directly to the email address designated by University of the People. UoPeople's registrar applies the agreed equivalency (Elective credit) to your transcript. No third-party services are involved.
