For example:
If your CLEP for English Comp is the one with the essays, it will fulfill: 1A, 1B, 1D, 2C and 4B
Sophia: Communication at Work fulfills 1C
Sophia: Intro to Ethics fulfills 2A/2B/4C/4D
CLEP College Math fulfills: 3A, 3B
CLEP Natural Science fulfills: 3C
It wasn't with the essay ): I did that years before this online stuff was even a thing, back when there was only that big book (I think it was called "Bear's Guide...") that told all about TESU and whatever Excelsior used to be named.
But I digress...
So as long as I can fulfill at least one of the courses from each objective (minimum of 40 credits) I'm good to go on the Gen Eds. Got it.
And then, let's just say I or somebody else was able to do it with just 40 credits. Surely that 40, and then the BA/BS requirements (meaning the reqs for, let's say, Business Admin degree) wouldn't be enough credits. That might equal 100 credits. So would the applicant just pick electives to fill in the other 20, to get to 120 credits?
Thanks.
You must take at least 30 credits at UMPI as the residency requirement.

I guess my question wasn't clear. I already understand UMPI requires 30 credits to be taken there.
A BA degree in any field is basically 120 credits, give or take. The first 2 "years" are mostly Gen Eds, and equal 60 credits. The second half is another 60 of specialized classes. This is how most degrees are broken down.
Now if UMPI let's you escape the first half of that with 40 credits (instead of 60), and then you do the other 60. You now have a Bachelor's Degree for 100 credits? That can't be true, so I'm asking, in that case, what would a person do to make up the remaining 20 credits? Electives?

Also, what are UMPI requirements regarding the number of UL credits?
