Completing these sequences gives students an opportunity to experience the rigor of Newlane courses, and online learning through the Newlane platform. The courses in these sequences are different for the Associate and Bachelor’s degree. Moreover, students need not repeat a course for the Bachelor’s degree if they have previously completed it during the Associate degree.
