They have an agreement with StraighterLine.

I will say that the English classes, American Government, and science classes will be much easier and far less work at UMPI. I say this from experience as I've taken them. I'll be taking Spanish next month at UMPI.

Yep! you have to take 30 residency credits. So by the time I graduate I'll have 129.66 credits.

@ss20ts, very good to know as I am deficient in all of subjects.  I was debating taking my ENG and POS classes at Sophia or UMPI, though I'm unsure if Sophia has any classes that qualify as POS.  I had definitely not considered UMPI for the science classes but now you've got my thoughts brewing.

I registered for the $149 promo at Sophia so I could knock out my remaining GECs (minus BIO) because I can't afford more than three 8-week sessions at UMPI unless I become employed soon.

Are you able to get financial aid? UMPI accepts pell grants. and they also have new student scholarships and transfer student scholarships.

@gams007, the UMPI website says you can transfer an unlimited number of credits, however, you must take at least 30 credits in residence at UMPI, as @adegree4me noted.  I think someone on this forum attending UMPI has approximately 180 credits.  Maybe @ss20ts?

@adegree4me, Thank you for your suggestions!  I definitely do not qualify for a pell grant.  I will investigate the other options.  If I return to work this year, I could cover the additional expenses.  It's toss up as to whether I should return to work this year as I've had some health challenges.  As well, I have two kids in college and I don't want to impact their potential financial assistance.
