UoPeople is tuition-free, but charges a $120 per-course assessment fee for undergraduate courses. Savings = transferred credits × $40 (the per-credit equivalent of UoPeople's $120 assessment fee for a 3-credit course). UoPeople credit awards subject to their evaluation policy.
Microeconomics is the study of how individuals, households, and businesses make choices when resources are limited. It focuses on topics like supply and demand, prices, consumer behavior, production costs, and how markets respond to government rules, taxes, and competition. In this course, you learn how these decisions shape everyday markets such as labor, goods, and financial services.
This self-paced Microeconomics course uses video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with grading weighted at 20% Quizzes, 30% Assignments, and 50% Final Exam. When you finish, the transcript can be sent for review, and University of the People recognizes the course as BUS 1103 – Microeconomics, a named course equivalency in its catalog.
Microeconomics helps you make sense of pricing, consumer behavior, costs, and how markets respond to taxes, regulation, and competition, which can be useful in day-to-day decisions and workplace problem-solving. At University of the People, that credit can support degree progress in programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science.
After you complete the course, your transcript is reviewed by University of the People, and its team applies the transfer decision to your record. Because this course is recognized as BUS 1103 – Microeconomics, it can satisfy the matching course requirement in your UoPeople degree plan rather than just counting as general elective credit. UoPeople accepts up to 90 transfer credits, which is 75% of a degree, so this course can be part of a larger transfer strategy for an Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science. UoPeople is the world's first non-profit, tuition-free, WASC-accredited online university, and students only pay a small per-course assessment fee.
This course is a practical option for students planning to transfer into University of the People and wanting a direct match to BUS 1103 – Microeconomics. It can fit degree-finishers and working adults who want to move credits into a program with a clear transfer path, especially since UoPeople accepts up to 90 credits, or 75% of a degree. It is less useful for someone who does not need a named course equivalency or is not working toward a UoPeople degree.
University of the People is the world's first non-profit, tuition-free, WASC-accredited online university. Its team evaluates your transcript for you, and you only pay a small per-course assessment fee — no tuition.
