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.
Physics I is an introduction to the basic laws that describe how objects move and interact. It covers measurement, vectors, motion, forces, work, and energy, so you learn how to use math to explain everyday physical situations such as a falling object, a car speeding up, or a ball thrown through the air.
Physics I (Physics 200) is a 3-credit self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with grading weighted 20% Quizzes, 30% Assignments, and 50% Final Exam. When you complete the course and send the transcript to Newlane University, the credit is recognized there as Introduction to Physics, which is a named course equivalency in the Newlane catalog.
The course builds skills in measurement, vectors, motion, forces, work, and energy, which are useful for reading data, solving problems, and understanding how physical systems behave. At Newlane, that credit can support degree progress in programs such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy, where each transferred course can help you move closer to the 75% transfer limit within a plan that allows up to 90 credits to transfer.
After you finish Physics I, the transcript is sent to Newlane University for review. Newlane's registrar applies the named equivalency Introduction to Physics, so the course is not just counted as general transfer credit but placed into the catalog course that matches the degree plan. That matters because Newlane is DEAC-accredited, competency-based, and uses transfer credit within a structure that allows up to 90 credits to transfer, or 75% of the bachelor's degree. For students in programs like the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy, that can reduce the number of Newlane credits still needed to finish.
Physics I is a practical choice for students who want a clear transfer result at Newlane and need a course that already maps to Introduction to Physics in the catalog. It can fit adult learners, students finishing a degree, or anyone watching costs, especially since Newlane is competency-based and accepts transfer credit up to 90 credits or 75% of the degree. It is not the best fit if you are looking for a non-credit overview only, or if you do not need a course that will appear as a named equivalency on a Newlane transcript review.
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.
