About this course

Understanding Programming in C for your Newlane credit.

What is Programming in C?

Programming in C is an introductory computer science course focused on writing programs in the C language, one of the foundational languages used to understand how software works at a low level. Students learn how to build programs with variables, conditions, loops, functions, arrays, pointers, and basic memory management, along with the ANSI C coding standards used in many development environments.

How the course teaches you

Programming in C (Computer Science 240) is a 3-credit course with work divided into 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. As you move through the course, you practice the same core skills Newlane recognizes in its Quantitative Literacy GE equivalency: using variables, conditions, loops, functions, arrays, pointers, and basic memory management in ANSI C. When the transcript is issued, Newlane can review the completed credit as transfer work that applies toward that general-education requirement.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course builds practical problem-solving habits that carry into jobs and everyday technical tasks, especially when you need to follow logic, test results, and work with structured information. At Newlane, that credit can help move you through degree plans such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy by satisfying Quantitative Literacy GE instead of taking a separate course for that requirement. Since Newlane is competency-based, finishing an approved transfer course can support steady progress toward the degree.

Skills you walk away with

Write and debug ANSI C programsUse variables, data types, and arithmetic expressionsBuild logic with if/else, switch, and loopsCreate and use functions with proper scope and storageWork with arrays, strings, and character dataUse pointers and manage memory carefullyApply recursion, iteration, and basic data structures

Taking this course toward Newlane

After you finish Programming in C, your transcript is sent for Newlane University review as transfer credit. Newlane’s registrar applies the course as Quantitative Literacy GE, which means it satisfies a general-education requirement in the degree plan rather than counting as an unrelated elective. That can be useful in programs like the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy, where general-education space matters. Newlane accepts up to 90 transfer credits total, and up to 75% of the bachelor’s degree may come from transfer, so this course should be planned within those limits.

Who this course is for

This course is a good fit if you want a transferable computer science foundation and you are planning around Newlane’s Quantitative Literacy GE requirement. It can also make sense for students who want to stay within Newlane’s transfer limits, since up to 90 credits may transfer and no more than 75% of the bachelor’s degree can come from transfer. It is not the best choice if you are looking for a non-technical elective only; the course is built around programming concepts and C language work.
