Many people pay thousands of dollars for a college education, but if you just love learning, you can get a complete college education for free (without the college credit or degree, of course) just by visiting iTunes University.

Through iTunes University, you can attend college courses from well-known universities, including Harvard, Stanford, Oxford, Princeton, Yale, and MIT. Whether you want to learn about history, engineering, computer science, business, or a foreign language, you can pick the courses that interest you the most.

All the iTunes University courses are stored as audio or video files that you can download directly to your iPad or through iTunes on your computer. Since some of these iTunes University course files are large, downloading them directly to your iPad may be convenient but time consuming. For that reason, you may find it easier to download iTunes University courses first to your computer and then transfer them to your iPad using the iTunes program.

In this chapter, you will learn how to transfer iTunes University courses that are on your computer to your iPad.
