Time to Receive Response to Application for Your Pace?

[CharisandJon]

That's about the same timeline as mine, I activated the account, but am deferring to Summer 2 session instead of Summer 1.

Do you know if there is any way to get my transcript evaluation report without confirming my intent to enroll or deferring to a later semester? I applied for Summer 2 and sent my transcripts over last week. Today I received an email that I was accepted, but needed to either confirm or defer enrollment to receive my transcript evaluation. I am trying to decide between UMPI and other schools based on the transcript evaluation, so I don’t want to confirm my enrollment yet. If I did decide on UMPI, I’d like to start Summer 2 and not a later semester. Any suggestions?

@CharisandJon, Your only option is to decide with what path you want to go, TESU, UMPI or stay with LU as per your previous thread and a recommendation there. In fact, if you do a spreadsheet and compare the options for the degree you're looking at, you'll know where your credits stand and the remaining requirements are...

You can actually see and visualize which one would be better for you, even if you don't know if the credits will transfer or not, it'll be like a pre-evaluation and preparing for that institution of choice. That's what the spreadsheet is, to compare what you have on the table and what is remaining at multiple institutions, also used for reference/tracking progress...

Lastly, you can 'confirm' enrollment with UMPI to get your evaluation if you're 90% sure it's the degree choice, if that 10% happens to change a week before class starts, you can always ask to defer, most people would already know if the degree/school is the choice they want to go to beforehand.

BJ, I am applying for the BBA in Management & Leadership however I considered the BLS Management minor as the fall back if my Sophia credit doesn't transfer well into the BBA. If the transcript assessment is unfavorable is it possible to change degree paths?

People change plans all the time, it requires an email/call to your academic advisor to have that changed, shouldn't be an issue if you wanted to do so...

@bjcheung77, thank you! I'm working on my spreadsheet for UMPI now for the BABA Accounting degree. 

On the DegreeForum wiki, it says that Study.com's Business 110 course transfers over as UMPI's Math 140. However, on the Study.com website, it says it transfers as only a math elective. Do you know which one is correct?

On the wiki, it also says that UMPI's BUS 350 can be fulfilled by Sophia's business law course, but in parentheses it says it may now come in as a LL course. Does that mean that the Sophia course will not transfer over for BUS 350?

Lastly, will UMPI do a block transfer and waive general education requirements for the BABA if I transferred in with a BS Interdisciplinary Studies? I thought I read that somewhere, but now I can't find it so just wanted to confirm. Thanks!

Basically, I'm doing the BAS as I want to transfer into the degree many of my obscure 'electives' and laddering to the MAOL by taking all 4 classes that can transfer to the MAOL, plus two for a minor of choice.  I haven't decided the minor yet... I am looking to finishing the BAS in 1 session and the MAOL also in 1 session when the time comes...

Are you going to take two months off of work or something like that in order to do the MAOL in a single term?
