UMPI BLS MIS PLAN on Wiki still worth following?

That's an awesome direct, quick, simple post to get the conversation started!  Is there a specific reason you're going for the UMPI BLS MIS?  I think it's a great option for maximizing your transfer credits if you have about 60-90 of them, but the major is actually Liberal Studies with a minor in MIS...
I'm a software developer, but I don't have any degree, so my plan is to get a bachelor's in any program from UMPI that has some relation to technology, since they don't have any IT courses a minor in MIS is fine by me. I plan to get a MS in Computer Science from another college after that anyway.

Thank you all for your help, I will be looking into your responses and continue working on my sophia courses, I believe the list on wiki is really easy to follow, I didn't have any problems understanding it.

Several students have had great difficulty with English Comp 1/2 and HUM 103 recently. I would strongly recommend looking at the Study.com options instead. Also, you may want to join the discord.

That's good information! Thank you! Where can I find the link to the discord group?

I'm not sure yet how Microbiology will come in, so I left that course out.

If you see any errors or have any suggestions, let me know. Is this GE wiki page easy to read and understand?

It can't get any easier. Thanks again!!

Do you have a few specific MS in Computer Science programs in mind? Some of them look for courses that aren’t included in the UMPI MIS program, unless you take them from Study.com as electives. You may want to double check whether this plan will get you where you want to go. I’ve tried to eye something along these lines for myself and the options haven’t been to my liking so far.
