24 UL Credits? - historyhehe - 08-21-2022
Hi all! Currently enrolled in History and have been given permission to transfer in Sophia courses while I work through my remaining UMPI courses.
Has anyone transferred in anything that satisfied some of the 24 UL credits that are required? Is there a list or anything of these that will transfer? Thanks!

@historyhehe, LOL, Welcome to the board! The upper level requirements should be completed at UMPI, at the least, the majority of the requirements for Upper Level should. It may be best for you to create a degree plan spreadsheet and compare that to your current academic evaluation. You should copy/paste or save to a PDF and attach both to a reply.
In brief, basically, I would follow these two links and review the info on both of them.

For Sophia specifically, we have this page: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/UMPI_Sophia_Transfer_Equivalents Previous transfers do not guarantee that any of these classes will transfer in as what's listed there.

Not Sophia, but I did Study.com History 108 (Vietnam) and it transfers in as HTY 439 Vietnam.

When I did it, I transferred in both SDC Vietnam courses. The LL one transferred in as HTY 439 and the other transferred in as a 3XX UL history elective, but filled one of the requirement slots. The benefit, for me, was that by doing one of the Vietnam classes you were well over halfway through the other one. Made for a pretty quick six credits.
That said, I really liked Professors Sebold and Zaborney. If you just do the history classes at UMPI, you will get a nice mix of easy (short) and difficult (long) ones. If you're looking for speed, I'd recommend taking as many classes that are HTY/POS cross-coded as you can, as those seem to be shorter, on average, but you really can't go wrong by just taking the classes that interest you most. I will, however, recommend Arab-Israeli conflict.
