Help planning Criminal Justice degree

For Pierpont: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Pierpont_C%26TC

I see only one class of Communications credits, so you'll want to take either Communication at Work and Visual Communication. Readings in the short story might work, but the Sophia courses are pretty quick and easy to take just in case. For Science/Math, I would suggest Algebra and either Human Biology or Environmental Science. You have the Social Sciences covered with Psych and US History. Take Intro to IT for the Computer Lit requirement. The remaining 60 credits can be your choice as you fill out requirements for a Bachelor's in CJ. Do NOT take either English Comp! If a CJ emphasis is available, you definitely have sufficient credits for such a degree.

For Criminal Justice, we are currently recommending UMPI: https://online.umpi.edu/programs/ UMPI accepts 90 transfer credits towards a degree. Most of your UL credits have to be taken at UMPI. For UMPI, you will need 3 credits in a foreign language. If you are fluent in a language, take an ACTFL exam. Otherwise, InstantCert's Spanish I is a good way to meet the requirement. You'll also need a science-with-a-lab. We recommend Study.com's Biology 101L for this. Other gen ed (GEC) requirements can be met through Sophia.

I should complete the Sophia courses before applying to Pierpont obviously right? Assuming they accept all 37 RA credits I would need 23 more from Sophia.

Say I take both Communication at Work and Visual Communication to cover the Communications requirement that leaves 17 more credits required.

Taking College Algebra and Intro to Biology checks off the Math/Science requirement and leaves 11 credits left.

Assuming Pierpont accepts my Community College Psychology as well as my Sophia.org Psychology one of them would be taken as an elective leaving 8 credits remaining. 

I would then take the Intro to IT and be left with 5 remaining credits. 

Basically what you're telling me is that I could hop back onto sophia.org and bang out 7 more courses and be done with my associates degree? I'm pretty sure I can do that in a single weekend.. This seems too good to be true haha.
