Abnormal Psychology is the study of patterns of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that may be distressing, disruptive, or outside typical functioning, and how psychologists understand and respond to them. It looks at how mental disorders are defined, how they are diagnosed using systems like the DSM, and what biological, psychological, and social factors may contribute to them.
Abnormal Psychology (Psychology 180) is a 3-credit self-paced online course with video lessons, quizzes, an assignment, and a final exam. The grade is based on 20% quizzes, 30% assignment, and 50% final exam, so you can show mastery across the course rather than through one type of assessment. When you finish and the transcript is sent, Newlane University recognizes the course as Social & Behavioral Sciences GE, which applies as a general-education requirement.
This course helps you read behavior, stress, and mental health issues with more care, which can be useful in many work and everyday situations. At Newlane, the credit can fit into programs such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy because it counts as Social & Behavioral Sciences GE rather than an extra elective with no degree requirement attached. That makes it easier to keep your transfer work aligned with the degree you are actually finishing.
After you complete the course, the transcript is sent and Newlane University reviews it for transfer. Newlane’s registrar applies the credit as Social & Behavioral Sciences GE, so it can satisfy a gen-ed slot in your degree plan rather than sitting as unused transfer credit. That matters because Newlane allows up to 90 transferred credits, with up to 75% of the bachelor’s degree coming from transfer. For students in Newlane programs such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy, this can help move general-education progress forward while staying within Newlane’s transfer limits.
This course is a practical option for students who want to earn transferable credit before moving into a Newlane degree plan and who need a general-education course that is recognized as Social & Behavioral Sciences GE. It can also suit students who are trying to stay within Newlane’s transfer structure, since up to 90 credits may transfer and no more than 75% of the degree can come from transfer. It is not the best fit if you need a course that is already a major-specific requirement at Newlane or if you are looking for a class with no exam-heavy grading.
Newlane University is DEAC-accredited and competency-based — you progress by demonstrating mastery. The entire bachelor's degree is a flat $1,500 total, and up to 75% of degree credit can come from transfer.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Final credit awards are determined solely by the receiving university's registrar.
Enroll for $250 (or use a UPI Study subscription), finish in 28–30 days, and transfer 3 credits to Newlane University.
