It shouldn't matter what the school offers - if you take Spanish 1, 2, 3, 4, Spanish Lit, Spanish History, whatever - all at a 4yr school, wouldn't it make sense for UMPI to give you credit for all of those? Even if they don't offer it? It's not like they offer EVERYTHING, so there will always be courses that people want to bring in, and they should transfer in. Most schools do it that way.
These are transfer credits basically. It does matter if UMPI doesn't offer the course. I had classes they transferred but don't offer and they were labeled things such as Business Elective 1XX meaning a 100 level business elective. I had an English Law in Literature course come in as English 1XX. My Children's Literature course came in as EDU357 because it's a course they offer. The only courses that transferred in that I was given UL credit for transferred in are courses from CSU Global which were UL courses there. One came in as BUS3XX and one as GEL3XX meaning a general elective. None of my ACE credits transferred in as UL. It does matter if they offer it because of how courses are leveled and it matters where it fits into a degree plan. Depending on the degree she wants there are few electives like in the business degrees.
You can always call and ask. I don't know if YourPace Admissions would have any idea about the credits though. I did login to my account and looked at the transfer equivalencies and so far no one has transferred any courses in from ACTFL. If they have then the system has not been updated. I don't know how often it's updated, but it is done regularly based on classes I've taken elsewhere and transferred in.
