Did you end up getting a credit evaluation from TAMUC that you’d be willing to share with the forum?

That means this forum makes up a noticeable amount of their enrollment.
I think it was mentioned to be ~100 in 2020/2021? If so, I wonder if they enlarged it because of all of the students coming from here. 
I definitely remember that ss20ts mentioned being told that most YourPace students don't complete more than 2 or 3 classes per session. Now we've got students here doing 8-14 classes per session! That's got to be quite a change for UMPI.

That’s nuts that YourPace is that small. I know it’s a small school, but I didn’t expect that few students in the program.
Crazy!

Exactly my experience, TAMUC has been like pulling teeth.

Maybe I should apply now. I don’t think there are any more courses they could take, unless they would take one from Saylor. There is one course on Saylor for Organizational Behavior. Then if I change my mind, I guess i could withdraw.

I bet!! This forum is a wealth of information, I had no idea the school existed! Happy to know now and have applied.

Yes I would encourage you to apply with patience and time!
Update as of this morning 3/11
UMPI said they are currently reviewing my transcripts and Jessica will get back to me.
TAMUC still hasn't found my Sophia and Study transcript I have sent over every which way. Trying to be patient.

I enrolled in TAMUC. I don't know if they ever reviewed my ACE credits or not. I'm a little in the dark on that, but I have the same advisor, Tara, and she's great.
I was set to do the spring semester starting at the end of March but I'm so swamped by other responsibilities that I pulled out and did a withdrawal form. I'll look at possibly doing the summer semester.
I've looked at the Texas history syllabus before and to be honest, I think it's going to be a pretty easy class.
I've tried to get going on a UMPI program twice, and both times the effort stalled out as for whatever reason, they just stop answering my emails. I'm a little uncomfortable being pushy but maybe that's what it takes.
Between the two schools, TAMUC seems to have far more resources and IMO more engagement. I get emailed invites to online events (and in-person events) all the time, one of which I joined and was really engaging and educational. I signed up to do an e-sports tournament. A lot of people don't care anything about that stuff, but I enjoy it.

Where you going to work on that at the same time as the Harvard Ext Masters you are doing?
I do like those extra resources you mentioned, so that's good to know!
I have had to e-mail UMPI several times regarding my transcripts (over 4 times) I think yeah unfortunately it helps to be a bit pushy.

Sweet! I love fringe benefits. If I knew how to play video games, I’d probably join esports too. LOL. My son has played on his high school esports team.
