UMPI

[Ann7]

Hmm, I'm not sure if it was this thread or another thread where I read for one of the degrees, you can transfer everything but 10 courses.  And there was a different degree where you would need 19 more courses.  Was there a reason for the big difference in number of courses?  I don't recall which degree or degrees these two were in... I am guessing one is a BLS in some minor, and then the other was a BSBA in some other minor...  I just want to know more about why 19 courses, if you can transfer in up to 75%.

Good question! 

That was me on page 17, somewhat. 

You must do 30 credits for a degree (10 classes) at UMPI. No going around this. 

If you do everything at Sophia and you want a regular BA degree like a Business, History, or Criminology Major you have about 19 classes left to do only doing everything at Sophia except Foundations and Public Speaking (Visual Communication counted as Public Speaking don't know why but I'll take it). 

If you want to do a Liberal Studies degree you will only have roughly about 10ish classes left, as an estimate, again if you do everything at Sophia except for Foundations. 

I only have to do 19 at UMPI. Why 19? I only transferred in Sophia credits. I was going to transfer in Calc from Aleks, but it wouldn't have made a difference.

Ive been trying to figure out the amount of classes remaining to complete at UMPI for Liberal Studies versus the English degree there with Sophia  courses.  Im not enrolled yet though.

I dont know If I am  correct in my assumptions .... but for the Liberal Studies it looking like you need 8 upper level elective classes besides the minor and only one Sophia class appears to come in as Upper level.

Also for their general  education requirements looks like one still would need a government class, a creative arts class and a particular science with lab class If only using Sophia credits.

In the minor possibly 3 or 4 more classes to do.  That depends on what you choose.

So If only bringing in Sophia classes first, I would calculate 13 - 14 classes to finísh a Liberal Studies degree there at mínimum.  

For the other degrees I dont know If they have a set requirement for upper level credits...I havent found it anywhere on the website so maybe just the classes listed for the major?

Ashkir's major choice already has tons of upper levels in it for example but the English major does not.  So I have no idea.
