About this course

Understanding Advanced Social Psychology for your Newlane 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 3-credit course with a 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam grading structure. Its content covers attitudes, persuasion, prejudice, conformity, identity, and group behavior, so the transcript reflects completed social psychology study that Newlane can evaluate for transfer. When the course is finished and posted on the transcript, Newlane recognizes it as Social & Behavioral Sciences GE, which applies to a general-education requirement.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course builds a practical understanding of how people think and act in groups, which is useful in workplaces, community settings, and everyday decision-making. At Newlane, that credit can help move you through degree planning in 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. For students trying to keep transfer efficient, it is a way to earn a gen-ed requirement that fits within Newlane's transfer framework.

Taking this course toward Newlane

After you complete the course, the transcript is sent for transfer review and Newlane's registrar applies it as Social & Behavioral Sciences GE. That means the credit fills a general-education slot in the Newlane degree plan rather than sitting as an unspecified elective. Newlane accepts up to 90 transfer credits, which is 75% of the degree, so this course can count toward the transfer portion of an eligible program. For students in Newlane's competency-based model, it is one more transcripted credit that can support progress toward a Newlane bachelor's degree.

Who this course is for

This course is a good fit if you want a transferable social science class that Newlane applies as Social & Behavioral Sciences GE and you are planning around Newlane's limit of up to 90 transfer credits, or 75% of the degree. It can suit students finishing a degree or building a transfer stack for a Newlane program, including the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy. It is not the best choice if you need a course outside social and behavioral sciences or if you are already near Newlane's transfer ceiling and need a different type of credit.
