BABA- Project Mgmt Credits Advises Needed - tryingohsohard - 06-08-2023

Hi Everyone!
Thanks to the advices everyone has given me in my previous thread.
https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-International-Student-Singapore
I have applied to UMPI Yourpace, and received my acceptance email two days ago! Yay!
While waiting for my acceptance , i started on Sophia courses and did some research through the provided links given here.
However , i would still need some more advises from everyone if thats alright.

As i applied, i had used a provisional iee report on equivilancy to the united states, it does not indicate the amount of credit , it just says " a high school diploma and 2 years of undergraduate credit"
I believe i still have to send my transcripts to IEE again for credit conversion reports ,however will there be a chance that UMPI will do it for me?

As i am accepted to Fall 1 session , would it be possible or is it too much that i start on Fall 2 or Spring 2 Sessions? As i need time to complete my Sophia/SDC/Coursera before i start on UMPI. I hope i would not have to apply again.

I had set a plan for myself with the resources provided.But i would need some advises if i am on the right track.

In red is what i had completed till now.
I seem to be short of 20 credits, did i miss out something?

I dont intend to transfer any of my previous credits unless i absolutely need to, cause i dont think my previous credits ( overseas studies) counts for much :/

Hope to hear from you guys soon!

Thanks for the help!

Unfortunately, no, UMPI won't do the conversion for you. It needs a full evaluation by an actual evaluation company for UMPI to count it as specific credits.

No only that, you need the evaluation for other various reasons behind the scenes, not just for getting previous credit. They need to verify you have the High School and the two years credit and the courses within them. This saves both the institution and you money and time... You should follow the previous thread to get the max credit transfer through your previous evaluated courses, ACTFL, Sophia.org

Thanks for the replies on the conversion of credits.
I would not use that and will follow the pathway provided here.

Will i be able to defer enrolment to fall 2 as i am accepted to fall 1 . Can i progressively send in credits from credly from now till fall 2 intake?

Any kind souls can help advise me on the following plan i set for myself.
"red is completed"

I tried to contact Jessica on this questions and got no replies.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, you can defer enrollment, in fact, that's what I usually recommend people to do so they can focus on their 90 credit transfer max before they even start at UMPI. And yes, your file indicates 100 credits, it's missing the 20 credits... at a first glance, you're missing 9 credits for the General Education requirements already... Did you follow the template here? If not, make changes so you have all the requirements fulfilled! https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/UMPI_BABA_Project_Management_Degree_Plan
