Since you're trying to keep costs down, you might also want to look into using TADA to get some free UL credits for UMPI. https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Coursera You need a certain number of UL credits outside of your minor, if you're going for the BLS, and taking some for free ahead of time can help.
Free? I thought the price just went up from $130 to $350.
Look at the date of the post. It's from over a year and a half ago. Things change.

Yes, 2022 and earlier, it was 'free' plus cost of transcripts... I purposely waited for when they offered it at $130 to help off-set the cash they were probably losing with that freebie, (the transcripts cost is not from them, it's from your previous institutions). I still recommend them even though they recently bumped that $130 to $350, it's the cheapest, easiest, fastest AAS you can get... My post from a few days ago:

I see that now. I’ve been using my computer to post, and this is the first time I’ve logged in with my phone. The website looks much different on a phone. Don’t mind me over here not knowing how to work the internet lol
