Doesn't UMPI Waive GERs for a 2nd bachelors? - Whitepines - 05-31-2024

I was under the impression that the GERs were waived. But their evaluation of my first bachelors and all the additional classes I've taken came back with needing all my English classes and biology. I was super English heavy with my first degree so that's just weird. I was thinking about going for a 2nd RA psych bachelors after finishing my Masters in Nonprofit Management just because I've always wanted to learn more psychology, but I am not feeling English 101 again. Maybe my one RA and my one unaccredited  bachelors are enough undergrad learning...

The GEC is waived for a second bachelor's degree. Was your first bachelor's degree completed at an RA college? Did you send the transcript showing you graduated with your bachelor's degree? Has that transcript been evaluated? If yes to all 3 questions, then you'll need to contact your academic success coach to inquire what the issue is.

They waived it for me, so it should be

I’m just over here wondering how the Christian Leaders degree went. I’ve tried some of their courses but had a hard time sticking to it. (Too many irons in the fire)

Yes to all three questions. I'll have to contact them again. Thanks.

I really enjoyed it. Prayer, Leadership, Evangelism, Women and Leadership in Early Christianity and Influence Smart really were outstanding classes. I was going to wait for the final accreditation decision but that could take 5 more years, so I graduated.
