Stuck in admissions process

@pacha007, Please fill in the addendum and template while you're waiting for a response from UMPI, without knowing much about you scenario, we won't know if it's going to be possible for you to complete the degree with just 1 session.

Not many people are able to complete the entire 30 credits in 1 session, when I tried on my first session, I only was able to complete 7 of the 10 classes I wanted to transfer, I have yet to complete the remaining ones (the 3 that will go towards the MAOL).

@SpartacusPM, I read your previous post/thread, have you applied to TAMUC for their CBE and deciding between UMPI? I noticed in your previous thread, you haven't filled in the addendum and template either, I was the last person who commented in your thread.

I understand it is frustrating, because I am going through the same situation. They need my transcripts from a trade school I went to 14 years ago. Which I have been able to request, the problem lies in that trade school only sends it via mail. I was finally able to talk to the trade school last week and "as a courtesy" they sent it "early", which was 5 weeks after I requested and paid for the transcripts. Since there processing time as 7-8 weeks. They claim to have mailed it out this week on Monday and since UMPI is currently closed due to power outages in the area, it seems unlikely I will be able to begin the Spring Session 1.

Once I realized they may be possible I went ahead and submitted my application to East Texas A&M University and submitted all my electronic transcripts. In the hopes that one of them work out for the early Spring Session. If not I will have to aim for Spring 2.

You mentioned that if you don't get in to Spring 1 that your credits will go down the drain and that simply isn't true. You may have to postpone 1 session or 2, but don't get discouraged when you are so close.

Yes our situations are very similar. I also submitted my application to TAMUC like an hour ago lol and sent the required documents but haven't received a confirmation email yet.
I am limited by time so a Spring 2 admission might delay my future plans or even cancel them.

Any update? I am asking since I just received my acceptance email from UMPI, for the Spring 2 start date.

Hi @bjcheung77,

I am just seeing this message today. I applied to TAMUC/ETAMU as more of a backup incase UMPI really dragged their feet or I had issues with them not being accepted. I have already been accepted by TAMUC/ETAMU just waiting on the transcript evaluation. I was just received the acceptance email from UMPI today. 

I didn't complete the addendum/template since I didn't need help deciding which school or courses to take, as all the wikiboards and other resources already had everything to choose which courses I needed. 

Are there other advantages I am not realizing to complete these templates?

I was also asked to send an official transcript from the university I attended, but when I tried to do that, I discovered that I have a financial hold for an amount of money that is impossible for me to pay off anytime soon.

Did you pay for any of the classes or credits for the 5 courses you passed for that school during that time?

If so, I'm pretty sure you can still get a copy of your transcripts if you contact the school because I've seen it happen first-hand. I can give you a template of what to send to the college registrar's office in order to properly request it. But that only works if you paid at least some money rather than none at all.
