Degree planning advice

[Oktoberfest]

fyi, I passed the ACTFL German RPT Test two days ago. The end result was an advanced mid and to my surprise it was quite difficult although I must admit I quickly ran through the 15 questions in about 25mins. So didn't focus on getting the best result - just wanted it to be over quick.

I applied yesterday to UMPI Yourpace BABA Management starting Fall1 on 28th August. Asked LTI and Sophia to send over my transcripts to edocs@maine.edu and they already confirmed having done so. Did the same via credly on my own. No mail received yet regarding the application. Don't know if that's the normal process and how long I have to wait now before getting some (auto)reply. At least expected to get some autoreply tbh. Anyone can comment on this? In the meantime I am going to start with study.com and follow the degree plan.

You won't get an auto reply. It takes a few weeks for the U of M system to process your application. At some point in the process, you'll get an email to set up your MaineStreet account. There you'll be able to check your UMPI email which is where your academic advisor will email you. You'll also be able to see your transcripts in there. It will take a few more weeks for your transcripts to be processed once you're accepted. You should also get a printed copy in the mail on bright orange paper.

Just an FYI, you got 3 credits for that score on the ACTFL German RPT exam.

Great work, just wait for your transcripts to get evaluated and you'll know the remaining requirements to work on at UMPI.

Thanks again to everybody. I really noticed how imprtant it is to get answers as personally I find them motivating and keeping me on track to reach a goal. That said, I got my welcome mail and have access now to mainestreet after activating my account from welcome mail. Ofc there's not yet much to see in there. Continuing on SDC now while waiting for my transferred credits to get accepted.

There won't be much on MaineStreet for you as a YourPace student. Probably 95% of the site is for on campus students. You won't see a degree plan in it. You won't be able to create the class wish list. You can't add or drop classes in it. Pretty much all you'll be able to see is the classes that transferred and what courses you completed at UMPI with your grades and GPA along with your degree program. You'll also be able to check your UMPI email through MaineStreet. You'll need to use that email when contacting the staff. You'll also access your classes through MaineStreet.

I got the following shown on the sidemenu "To Do List" today when logging in. They want me to send in:

• Official HS Transcript
  
• Official Test of English Lang.
  
• Resume
  

HS i have no transcript or what they understand from it, It's from 2001 a German "Zeugnis".
English Lang Test and Resume? Why? Read somewhere I don't need HS / English when I reach at least 60 points transferring in....

You should contact Shea who works in YourPace Admissions. International students have different admissions requirements. When I applied, I didn't need a high school transcript because I had an associate degree. If I didn't have the degree, I still would have needed the high school transcript even though I had 190 something credits.

Well contacted her and got my response. They want ne to send in HS diploma, resume and English test.

She mentioned my HS diploma has to be submitted through an evaluation service!? Whatever that means. Anyone??
Resume is clear, no problem!

Any recommendation for quick and cheap English test?

WES is one of their preferred evaluators. You should ask Shea these questions. She's the one who will have the most recent info on what UMPI will accept.
