CATALOG.UMPI.EDU / UMPI.EDU IS NOT ONLINE.UMPI.EDU - ashkir - 06-21-2021
Just a PSA for anyone researching UMPI YourPace:
catalog.umpi.edu and umpi.edu website information is 99% of the time not related to YourPace. YourPace exists solely at ONLINE.UMPI.EDU
There are way too many threads and posts even in the recent days across this forum and the sister forum where people are getting this confused.

Thanks for this, ashkir!
Do you know if it's possible to email the folks at YourPace and ask if X course from Y institution would transfer over prior to taking the course or enrolling? I've sent in my application, but I'm trying to maximize my time at UMPI, which means making sure I'm prepared. I know some institutions are a bit cagey about this, as they'd prefer it if students took courses from their institution instead.

Once you're accepted you're basically enrolled. Once enrolled you need permission for classes outside of UMPI to be transferred in. I don't think you'll get an absolute yes or no to what will transfer in until you apply and the Registrar has your transcripts. The Registrar is who determines how and what transfers in. That person works on 2 campuses and doesn't really have time to do this for every transfer student. Colleges tend to focus on their paying students not folks who aren't students. Also keep in mind that colleges change policies on ACE courses all the time! Study.com is under review right now. If they tell you yup class xyz123 transfers in today but it may not in 3 months because of a change.

Ah, crap, I didn't realize that. I assumed by having different application and enrolment deadlines, I could apply now (primarily so I can get my HS to send over the transcripts since they're closing up soon, and the school board is currently a MESS), and then officially enrol closer to the deadline to maximize my transfer credits.

You can defer your admission.

I'm planning on the BABA in Management & Leadership and perhaps maybe a minor in Project Management. Is it safe to assume that the minor core requirements listed in the BLS would be the same courses?

Your minor will be a second degree. So you will receive two degrees:
BABA in Management & Leadership
BLS - Project Management Minor

Actually you can complete a BABA with the Management & Leadership concentration and then add on the Project Management minor. You talk to Jessica who will handle the administrative side and then you take the courses listed in the minor. You don't have to complete the BLS and earn a second degree.

I'm not certain how it would be difficult to get a BLS while getting a BABA, since there are no requirements for it once you get the GEC - the BABA would fulfill it entirely, except the minor anyway. So it would make sense to do it either way.
