Need Help with Degree Planning Please

Hi all,

Thanks for taking the time to provide me with your advice. It is greatly appreciated!

I finished going through enrollment with UMPI and was given a final list of classes I need to complete. I have 16 courses remaining. My goal is to finish these in the fastest and easiest way possible. Whether that is through UMPI or other methods such as Sophia. I have finished a bunch of Sophia courses, and they were fast and easy. I recently looked at Study.com, and they seem significantly longer.

Below are the remaining courses I need to complete. Does anyone have recommendations on the fastest and most efficient way to go about this?

1. 2.D - Art 103, 108, 120, 221, 231, 235, Eng 211, Bus 186 Decison Making
   
2. 5.E - Pos 101, 211, 332
   
3. Bus 200 Intermediate Computing
   
4. Bus 220 Managerial Accounting
   
5. Bus 325 Financial Management
   
6. Bus 440 Business Analytics
   
7. Bus 469 - Strategic Professional Communication
   
8. Mat 140 or Mat 131 - 
   
9. Bus 219 Product Development
   
10. Bus 261 Marker Research and Analysis
    
11. Bus 307 Fundamentals Consumer Behavior
    
12. Bus 330 Marketing Management
    
13. Bus 334 Advertising, Public Relations
    
14. Bus 337 Integrated Marketing Communications
    
15. Bus 430 Global Marketing
    
16. Bus 443 E Commernce and Social Media Marketing
    

I have included the official attachment from UMPI if helpful to see.

1. GEC 2D should be taken at UMPI.
2. I think GEC 5E is American Government at UMPI. Apparently, it only takes most people 2-3 days to finish the course and submit their final paper.
3. I don't think this can be taken anywhere else.
4. Accounting 301: Applied Managerial Accounting @ Study.com. May or may not be faster & easier from UMPI. I have no direct experience.
5. I don't think this is available elsewhere.
6. IBM Data Analyst Professional certificate: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Coursera
7. I don't think BUS469 is available elsewhere.
8. MAT 140, UMPI. MAT 131 is Calculus. Can be taken at Sophia.
9. Doesn't look like this is available elsewhere.
10. Also not available elsewhere.
11. Nor BUS307
12. Business 309: Digital Marketing & Advertising @ Study.com
13. Unavailable.
14. Also unavailable.
15. Nope.
16. Not available either.

6. That certificate is overkill. It's far more work than BUS440. This class has an exam so I wouldn't look elsewhere for it. The marketing concentration is very limited in what can transfer in from elsewhere with ACE courses. This is not one of the fastest concentrations. The papers are long - most are 10+ pages.

Thank you very much for your thoughts. Looks like UMPI is the main route here.

Thanks for your advice! It is so very much appreciated.  What is the fastest and easiest business degree at UMPI? What would you recommend? I just need to finish this for the paper to check a box at my company.
