Since you have both microeconomics and macroeconomics, you will get credits for ECO 207 and elective credits for ECO 2XX for a total of 6 credits.
You still need a lab and a foreign language for your general education.
You can definitely bring down the number of classes required at UMPI using a combination of Sophia and some Study dot com. Just keep in mind that you need a minimum of 30 credits at UMPI.
Thanks for the reply. ok. so i think i understand now. the macro/micro are still worth 6 credits just done a little different than i was expecting. thank you!
i have been looking at the wiki pages for them and where I'm getting lost is on some of the tables that have blanks.
I assume that means they should just be taken at UMPI directly
The lab part - is it best to do the 1 credit biology lab at sophia to finish that off?
any thoughts at all on the credit for the exams and certifications part? i ask because i know sometimes schools give credit for things like I.T. certs so i was thinking along that line
thank you again!

How long did it take you to get those Sophia.org classes completed? You may want to provide more details asked for here, so we can gauge your budget, commitments, study habits, etc: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Area-works
Thanks for commenting. The Sophia courses i did over a couple of months. I dont mind basically spending an entire day just finishing off a course which is what i meant
when i said Sophia just works for me. i like the format and can get through them pretty quickly.
From what I have read I would say that the Saylor stuff would be the exact opposite.
I am in New York and had at one point thought about Excelsior but unless I am completely not understanding, UMPI would be probably substantially less cost if I could finish off the
30 credits from them in 1 or 2 sessions.
The Excelsior only requiring 2 courses with them is nice but the Enrollment and graduation fees fees fees just seem to add up to plenty more than a couple of UMPI
hope that fills some info gaps and I appreciate the help
