Can courses other than S&DS1000 and S&DS2300 count for the statistics requirement?

For students who received a score of 5 on the AP Statistics examination, the YData course, S&DS 1230, can also be taken to fulfill the Psychology statistics requirement.

For all other statistics course, the DUS will need to see the syllabus of that course for the current semester to make sure the proposed course covers all necessary concepts. Please note that many other statistics classes offered at Yale (including Econometrics courses) do not cover the necessary material. In particular, if a proposed course does not cover ANOVA and/or multiple regression in the context of psychological science the DUS is unlikely to approve it.
