Important information! READ BEFORE APPLYING
#21
It is absolutely possible to complete more than 1 major through the YourPace program.  I completed a major in accounting and a major in business administration (management and leadership concentration).  A minor is also a possibility. I was enrolled for a while in the educational studies minor, but didn’t want to take the extra time to complete it, so I had that removed from my degree plan. You need to talk to Jessica and apply a little common sense—I probably could not have added an accounting minor since I had an accounting major or a management minor since I was doing the BABA. But there are also combinations that are possible which are not listed on the website.

One thing to be aware of: on a couple of occasions when I was talking to Jessica about classes/majors/concentrations/minors she asked whether I was receive student aid, such as a Pell grant. From what she said, it seems like there are more restrictions on aid recipients than there are on people who are self-funding. Pushback regarding adding extras to different people’s course of study may reflect both changes in UMPI YourPace policy as well as the individual student’s situation.
