"UMPI charges $50 per credit hour for assessment and processing costs." - FM1 - 12-01-2023

Does this mean they will charge $4500 if I were to transfer 90 credits in?

Where does it say this? I suspect it's for PLA/Portfolio credit and not Sophia/SDC credit.

When reading something, you really want to read it properly otherwise it'll be confusing since you haven't mentioned anything else... Rachel83AZ is correct, it's just for PLA/Portfolio, not for transferring other credits such as CLEP/ACE or from other RA institutions.

What are you talking about? Please provide a link. You may be looking at PLA credits or something for on campus students.

I think Rachel and Bj may have already speculated that.  Big Grin

Phew, thanks for confirming. I'll be sure to be more careful and read the full context in future before I give everyone else a heart attack as well. Big Grin

Are you reading the UMPI website? Probably 95% of that website doesn't pertain to YourPace students.


Will I make the 15th December YourPace enrolment deadline? - FM1 - 12-06-2023

I have only a few courses left to complete on my study plan which I am hoping to complete by the end of this week (10th Dec). Given transcripts take 10 days to send across, they should reach UMPI on 17th Dec which is 2 days after enrolment deadline.

I'm really keen on enroling in the upcoming term so I was wondering:

  1. Can I enrol and send transcripts after I enrol?
  2. If so, is there a cut-off time before UMPI has to receive the transcripts, e.g. before I start my first class?
  3. Is there anything else I should know/be aware of prior to enrolment (I have read the 'Important information! READ BEFORE APPLYING' thread)

They will usually let you transfer more courses in after you already start. For example some people can do 2 Sophia classes while at UMPI doing classes and transfer those in. Just be upfront with them.

Applications are due December 12th! You have the 15th above which is wrong.

Apply right NOW! Do NOT wait until you have completed your Study courses. Send a transcript for what you've completed now on Study and then send an updated transcript after you complete your courses.
