Hi,
I am debating between enrolling in a business degree at WGU and the PM degree with UMPI. The PM degree interests me, but I am not strong writer. From what’s been said, UMPI is mostly paper writing.
How much writing does this degree have?

In the attached spreadsheet, I have listed the PM courses that I completed at UMPI. The employee handbook is the only "real" paper that you have to write in the concentration.

You will probably also have to do English comp I & II and Creative and critical thinking at UMPI

The PM degree at UMPI is a business degree. It's not a full PM degree. PM is just a concentration on the BABA.

Within the last 3 sessions + the current session. None have been changed from exams to papers yet since UMPI has not moved to Brightspace yet.

I just need to do Spanish through Sophia, and maybe my 1C and 5E I think Study.com American Gov covers both? And then I will be ready to tackle my 10 UMPI courses. Hopefully in 2 sessions.
