Savings estimate = credits × $360, Woodmont's published undergraduate per-credit tuition (new.woodmontcollege.edu/tuition-and-fees). Under the articulation agreement Woodmont does not charge tuition for the UPI Study courses it recognizes as credit. Credit awards are subject to Woodmont's review and policy.
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.
Medical Terminology (Health 120) is a self-paced online course built on video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam. Attendance, quizzes, assignments, and the final exam each carry 25% of the grade, so keeping up with every component matters, not just the exam. Completing the course produces a 3-credit transcript entry, which Woodmont College recognizes as a General Elective that counts toward total credit hours and elective requirements.
Learning to break medical words into prefixes, suffixes, and root words lets you work out unfamiliar clinical terms, which is useful in healthcare settings and in any role that involves reading health-related documents. At Woodmont, the 3 credits apply as General Elective hours, so they can fill elective slots in the BS in Technology, BS in Business, or BS in Psychology, depending on how your degree plan is laid out. The same vocabulary also helps when you are reading medical paperwork for yourself or a family member.
After you complete the course, your transcript is sent to Woodmont College, and Woodmont's registrar applies the credit as a General Elective under the articulation agreement with UPI Study. In practice, the 3 credits count toward total credit hours and elective requirements in your Woodmont degree plan, including the BS in Technology, BS in Business, and BS in Psychology. Woodmont caps transfer credit at 84 credits (70%), and this course uses part of that allowance. Confirm the placement with a Woodmont advisor before choosing your remaining electives.
This course suits working adults finishing a Woodmont degree who want a self-paced option that fills elective hours, and cost-conscious students who would rather transfer a credit than pay $360 per credit for an equivalent elective. Because the credit is recognized only as a General Elective, it is most useful if your degree plan has open elective hours. It is not the right choice if you need a course that satisfies a named required course in your major, and you should keep in mind that transfer credit counts toward the 84-credit (70%) ceiling.

Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Students must be enrolled at Woodmont in good standing and meet course and program requirements. Woodmont is solely responsible for how it recognizes UPI Study courses.
