Taking this course toward Newlane

After you complete the course, your transcript is sent for review, and Newlane University applies the credit as Principles of Management because it is a named course equivalency. That matters because named recognition is the strongest form of transfer recognition and gives you a direct match in Newlane's catalog rather than a vague elective placement. Newlane then uses that match in your degree plan for programs such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy. Keep in mind that Newlane accepts up to 90 transfer credits, so this course should be counted within that overall limit.

Who this course is for

This course is a good fit if you want a Newlane transfer course with a clear named equivalency, especially if you are trying to stay within Newlane's rule that up to 90 credits may transfer. It can also suit students who want to build toward a Newlane degree in a measured way, since Newlane is competency-based and allows up to 75% of degree credit to come from transfer.
