Estimate at a full-time pace of 30 credits a year (about 2.5 credits a month); Newlane is self-paced, so your own pace sets the real number. Newlane's tuition is $1,500 per degree however many credits you transfer, so UPI Study credits save you time, not tuition.
Introduction to Sociology is the study of how people live together in groups, how social rules and institutions shape behavior, and why societies develop patterns such as inequality, deviance, and cultural differences. It looks at everyday life through a social lens, asking how family, school, work, government, race, gender, and other forces influence individual choices and opportunities.
Introduction to Sociology is a 3-credit course with a graded structure of 20% quizzes, 30% assignments, and 50% final exam. It studies culture, socialization, social structure, inequality, deviance, and social change through a social lens, so the work asks you to connect everyday experience to larger social patterns. When you finish, the transcript can be sent to Newlane University, where it is recognized as Introduction to Sociology through a named course equivalency.
The course builds a practical way to analyze family, school, work, government, race, gender, and other forces that shape choices and opportunities. At Newlane, that credit can fit into degree paths such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy, where understanding social institutions and cultural diversity can support broader academic work. Because Newlane accepts transfer credit within a 90-credit ceiling, this course can help move a degree plan forward while keeping more of the program at the university.
After you complete the course, your transcript is sent for review and Newlane University applies it as Introduction to Sociology through a named course equivalency. That matters because named equivalency is the strongest form of transfer recognition: it tells you exactly how the course fits in the Newlane catalog and degree plan. Newlane is DEAC-accredited and competency-based, with up to 75% of a bachelor's degree able to come from transfer and a maximum of 90 transferable credits overall. In practical terms, this course can count toward a Newlane program such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy, subject to the registrar's transfer review.
This course is a good fit for students who want a clear sociology requirement to transfer into Newlane and have their work recognized as Introduction to Sociology, not just as elective credit. It can also suit people who are trying to keep transfer costs low before enrolling at Newlane, where up to 90 credits may transfer and the degree is competency-based. It is not the best choice for someone who needs a lab course or a subject outside sociology, since the Newlane recognition here is specifically for Introduction to Sociology.
Newlane University is DEAC-accredited and competency-based — you progress by demonstrating mastery. Tuition is a flat $1,500 per degree ($3,000 for a full bachelor's without an associate degree), 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.
