Accounting Major transfer evaluation - Can anyone tell me what I'm in for?
#1
edit: I'm doing the Bachelor of Arts Accounting Major, not the Business Admin Accounting degree.

edit: I literally just got confirmation after posting this thread that I passed Sophia's Chem Lab course.

I start on Jan 17th. For those who have already completed or are in the process, what are the courses like on UMPI?

The PDF that UMPI sent me for "Your Pace Baccalaureate Program Accounting Major Overall Graduation Requirements" says that out of 120.00 required, I have 78 units taken and need 42 units despite the classes below in aggregate being much higher than 42 units. What gives?

_________________________________________________________________________________
Here are the classes on UMPI that I'm taking: I completed some extra Sophia classes after already submitting a transcript. I bolded and underlined some classes that I think I might be able to transfer in, can someone let me know if ?

BUS 150 Intro to Financial Accounting ← Assigned for First session
COM 210 Organizational Communication ← Assigned for First session
BUS 200 Intermediate Business Computing ← Assigned First session
BUS 220 Managerial Accounting ← Assigned First session

That degree only has a few electives which is why you have to take so many courses.

I took these classes and this is how I found the difficulty level. It may be different for you since you may be good at different things than I am and therefore find your experience with these classes to be different.

Intermediate Business Computing Easy (and fun for me  Smile )
Financial Management Hard (extremely long course with a test. Remember to memorize the formulas because the test is heavy on math using the regular formulas and excel formulas.)
Spreadsheet Application Easy (because I love spreadsheets, If you don't, you may not like it)
mathematics for business Easy (just make sure you can complete the problems in the coursework, and you should be fine)
project risk & cost management Hard (surprisingly hard test)
database management systems Medium (would be easy if the course focused more on how to use Microsoft access for creating databases)
project management applications I Easy
project management applications II Easy

Strategic and Professional Communication Medium/Hard
Federal Tax I Medium

Also, there are a lot of courses on that list that you can take on study.com, which will be cheaper than doing them at UMPI


Here is a link to my degree plan. The other degree plans on that spreadsheet are not up to date so I would only look at the Double major tab.
CLEP - 7 Courses, Study.com - 11 Courses, Sophia - 15 Courses, CSM Learn, INSTANTCERT - Spanish I, Coursera - Google Data Analytics Certificate.
