I’m going the Lab right now I forgot to add it!  I will add Spanish thanks for pointing that out!

Does this look like a good plan?  Are there any easier suggestions you might have?

If I’m reading that right, the only ones I can take there are social psychology, and abnormal psychology, correct?

Yep, looks right for study:
PSY 200: Social Psychology 3 Study.com Psychology 104: Social Psychology 3
PSY 235: Abnormal Psychology 3 Study.com Psychology 106: Abnormal Psychology 3

Looks like you already have Intro to Psych and can take Psych 205 on Sophia:
PSY 205: Lifespan Development 3 Sophia Life Span Development

Instead of English II, I'd recommend Workplace Writing II.

So basically, I’ll be doing the nine remaining psychology courses at UMPI and one elective correct?

Welcome to the board, great initial post to get the ball rolling, I guess you're pretty much set with the recommendations above. I would suggest the 4 general elective classes be the 4 possible classes that can go towards the MAOL for later, just in case you want to get the MAOL afterwards. Even though Organizational Leadership isn't I/O Psychology, it's somewhat a mix of Business Admin/Organizational Leadership with a dash of I/O Psych.
