Principles of Statistics is an introduction to how people collect, summarize, and interpret data. It covers the basic ideas behind surveys and experiments, how to read graphs and tables, and how to use probability to make sense of uncertainty. Students also learn how to work with common distributions, confidence intervals, and sample sizes.
Principles of Statistics is a 3-credit course with a 20% quizzes, 30% assignments, and 50% final exam grading structure, so students know from the start how progress is measured. The course covers the basics of collecting, summarizing, and interpreting data, including graphs, tables, probability, confidence intervals, and sample sizes. Once completed, the transcript can be sent to Newlane University, where it is recognized as Quantitative Literacy GE and applied as a general-education equivalency.
This course helps students read data more carefully, which matters in everyday decisions as well as in work that uses surveys, reports, or business metrics. At Newlane, the credit can support degree planning in programs such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy by meeting a Quantitative Literacy GE requirement instead of taking a separate course there. That can leave more room for other Newlane coursework within the degree plan.
After you finish the course, your transcript is sent to Newlane University for review. Newlane's registrar applies the credit as Quantitative Literacy GE, which means it satisfies a general-education requirement in the degree plan rather than sitting as an elective with no clear purpose. Because Newlane is competency-based and allows up to 90 transfer credits, this course can help reduce the number of Newlane credits you still need to complete. For students in programs such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy, that can make the remaining path more direct.
This course is a practical choice for students who want to satisfy a Newlane general-education requirement before enrolling or transferring, especially if they are building toward a degree with limited transfer room. Because Newlane accepts up to 90 transfer credits and up to 75% of a bachelor's degree may come from transfer, it can fit students who are trying to finish efficiently. It is not a good fit for someone looking for an advanced statistics course; it is an introduction, and Newlane applies it as Quantitative Literacy GE rather than as a major-level statistics requirement.
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.
