Will you review my degree plan? - lorie424 - 03-29-2022

Hello!  I am planning to apply at UMPI for the BA Project Management degree.  I had big plans to attend WGU, until I started lurking on these forums and discovered UMPI.  I have A LOT of credits, but just never completed the degree, and now that I have a career, I'm ready to finish.  

Can someone look over this and tell me if there is anything else I can be taking from Sophia or Study that I missed?  Or let me know if there's a course I plan to take at Study or Sophia that's much easier at UMPI.  Thank you so much!

Another thing that make might make easier is if you list all the previous credits you have. You said you have a lot. Then someone else might be able to plug them into a degree plan that way.

BUS 245 can be taken through Coursera. See https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Coursera and https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-Coursera-certificates

Keep in mind that you have to complete a minimum of 30 credits at UMPI and the majority of your ULs have to be completed at UMPI. Looks what you have.


RE: Will you review my degree plan? - bjcheung77 - 03-29-2022

@OP, I am very curious, a very important question as well... how much time can you dedicate to your studies?

Just an FYI, If you're signing up for Sophia.org, don't delay - sign up today! Otherwise, it goes up $20 tomorrow!


RE: Will you review my degree plan? - LevelUP - 03-29-2022

BUS 150: Introduction to Financial Accounting you have listed as Study.com.   You can take this at Sophia.


RE: Will you review my degree plan? - ss20ts - 03-29-2022

4A has to be completed at UMPI. All YourPace students take the YourPace Orientation. It's where you learn how to use the learning platform. It takes like an hour to complete. You take the course before your session begins. It is credit free.

I plan to spend 40-45 hours a week dedicated to my studies.  I'm hoping that will allow me to accelerate quickly through my courses.  

Thank you, I will sign up today so I can save that $20.

I think I have planned 14 classes to complete there, so I think I will be good on that.  What are ULs though?  I've seen that posted but have never figured out what it is.

UL = upper-level
LL = lower-level


RE: Will you review my degree plan? - bjcheung77 - 03-29-2022

@OP, perfect! If you'll be using that many hours a week towards your education, UMPI will be a very good fit for their competency degrees.
BTW, UL means upper level credit, for more terms see here: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Common_Terms
