What's the fee for that? Applications for UMPI are free, you're basically indicating to them you're not sure what degree you're going for or you're not going for a degree but trying their courses. For the OP, it technically is going to be the same as applying. I would recommend applying as a degree seeker instead, see where the credits land, chat with Jessica, get up to 90 credits applied to the degree (BLS MIS) and take 10 courses from them to graduate. RE: I need help figuring out how to finally obtain Bachelors, advice appreciated - ss20ts - 05-25-2023 If you apply as non-degree seeking then there is no degree evaluation and you won't see which credits will be applied towards an UMPI degree.

American History should work for 5B 2D maybe Music Appreciation fits, though maybe it doesn't. I'm not really sure there. 5E I don't see anything you took that will fit, take U.S. Government at Sophia. Your associate in info systems is a pretty solid degree from a knowledge standpoint. Doing a business major at UMPI is a good idea. I suggest making a spreadsheet of the rest of the classes you have to do for your degree plan, then start with Sophia first, then do Study.com. RE: I need help figuring out how to finally obtain Bachelors, advice appreciated - rachel83az - 05-25-2023 You need both macro and micro economics for it to count for a UMPI business degree. If you only have macro, take micro at Sophia.

If you only have macro, take micro at Sophia. Originally I transferred only macro from Sophia, and it came in as ECO 207. Later I transferred micro from Sophia, but that came in as ECO 207, while macro changed to an elective. So maybe macro is enough? But that was probably just an anomaly.

If you only have macro, take micro at Sophia. You still get your 6 credits which is why 1 course went into electives. You need both macro and micro to meet the degree requirement.

What is confusing about this is that ECO 207 is itself both micro and macro, so if your transcript reflects that ECO 207 is completed, how is the requirement not met?

I know UMPI is not always consistent with how they bring stuff in for everyone. There are a few anomalies and their database reflects those inconsistencies. |
