About this course

Understanding Advanced Social Psychology for your Gracelyn credit.

What is Advanced Social Psychology?

Advanced Social Psychology studies how people think about, influence, and relate to one another in social settings. It looks at topics such as attitudes, persuasion, prejudice, conformity, identity, and group behavior, with an emphasis on how these processes shape everyday actions and decisions.

How the course teaches you

Advanced Social Psychology (Psychology 310) is a self-paced online course built from video lessons, quizzes, an assignment, and a final exam. Attendance, quizzes, assignments, and the final exam each count for 25% of the grade. Once you earn a C- or better, the completed course generates transcript credit that Gracelyn recognizes as PSYC 2301 – General Psychology or PSYC 2314 – Lifespan Growth & Development.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course gives you a working vocabulary for attitudes, stereotypes, conformity, and group behavior, and practice explaining those ideas clearly in writing and speech. Those skills carry over into supervision, teaching, community work, and any role that depends on understanding how people make decisions together. At Gracelyn, the credit lands as a general psychology or lifespan development course, so its usefulness depends on whether it fits your plan in programs such as the Associate of Science in Transformational Education (ATED) or the Bachelor of Science in Transformational Education (BTED).

Skills you walk away with

Taking this course toward Gracelyn

After you complete the course, your transcript is sent to Gracelyn, where the registrar applies the credit as PSYC 2301 – General Psychology or PSYC 2314 – Lifespan Growth & Development. Because this is a named equivalency tied to a catalog code, the credit appears as a specific course rather than a general elective. Transfer is limited to 60 credits (50%), and the credit must be a C- or better and fit your program. Confirm with the registrar which of the two courses your degree plan uses before you register.

Who this course is for

This course suits students who need a psychology course on the way to a Gracelyn degree and want to finish it at a lower cost than retaking it in person, including working adults returning to finish a degree and people changing fields. Because it carries a named equivalency, it can count directly toward a specific Gracelyn course code, which is the strongest form of transfer recognition. Transfer credit is capped at 60 credits (50%) of your total, so students who have already used much of that allowance should confirm remaining space before enrolling. It is not the right choice for students who do not need a general psychology or lifespan development requirement, or for anyone whose program at Gracelyn does not accept it.
