Cheapest and easiest UL credit available atm? - daydream - 08-10-2026
Right now, I only have LL credit from community college. I think I'll take business ethics, business law, and/or operations management at Sophia (transfers in as BUS 3XX/4XX elective at UMPI). I took an LL business ethics class at CC, but I don't know whether or not it'll transfer in as UL. It was also listed under ACCT as opposed to BUS. Open to suggestions.

Are you planning on transferring to UMPI? What degree?

I'm gearing towards UMPI over TESU due to cost. It ultimately comes down to which school takes my CC credits. I'm still waiting on my evaluations for both. I know that both schools are especially lenient about RA credit, but I'm wary because local universities here take hardly any.
I've been considering a dual degree - that being a BLS in Liberal Arts and Management. My long-term plan is to apply to an MLIS program, MA in History, or law school. Still figuring it out.

In theory, the ENEB/UI1 master program can be evaluated as 30 credits upper division by CED (though post bachelor). Getting all that could be possible for under $500, but no guarantee that it would transfer over.

For UMPI, there's still a few Sophia courses that transfer as US. Study may have some as well. I wouldn't focus on UL. I would focus on what the degree requirements are and what can be taken via ACE and transferred into the degree.

Some of the Coursera certifications counted as UL credit, and they contributed toward the UL credit requirement I needed to finish my Bachelor of Liberal Studies at UMPI. You could probably complete a couple of them within a month. See: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Coursera

Coursera is always a fantastic option, and it's usually the cheapest one to do as it's totally doable to complete one of their professional certs in a month's time, especially if you use the VPN method to reduce the cost of the subscription. However, UMPI has minimized the amount of direct transfers. Though, they'll come in as general electives with a mix of UL and LL credits.
