My UMPI transfer credit evaluation - transferring to TESU

[sarahmac]

The minors are only 18 credits so I'm not sure how you need 24 credits for your minor. Spanish can be taken on InstantCert and the bio course can be done on Study.com instead of at UMPI. The studio art class in YourPace is fulfilled by a humanities course. Might be worth it to take a break from UMPI and complete more classes on Sophia and those above and transfer them in. We typically don't recommend applying to UMPI until you've completed 90 transferable credits.

My mistakes, my minors are 21 credits. I took almost every class at Sophia so I don't know what else I can take to fulfill the requirements. If I'm going to pay $200 for study.com I might as well do Hum-201 (transferred as Hum 103) along with Bio 101L because the subscription includes 2 tests AFAIK, right? I looked it up and Instantcert costs like 20 bucks a month plus $89 for the CLEP,  I've never learned Spanish so it's going to take me a couple of months to pass and pause my progress at UMPI (costs more time), so that's $129. 
So I left with 7 minor classes and 5 UL electives which I can finish in 3-4 sessions (6-8 months) at UMPI.
That's $4200 or $5600 plus $329 for the tests (1-2 months)
Total of $4529 or $5929 (7-10 months)

Meanwhile, for TESU, I'll spend 1 month plus $130 for Davar and 3 months plus $5047 to finish the capstone and graduate.
Total of $5177 (4 months)
The time I save to work more while studying and also graduate quickly to find better work is worth it, in my opinion.

I'm not certain why you think TESU would be cheaper (although MAYBE faster if you already have 114cr).

I'm also not certain how you're ending up with having to take so many classes at UMPI?  We have it where you can bring a ton of alt-credit in and just take 30cr there - the entire major/concentration/minor, plus ~4 electives?  Why aren't you doing this?

I thought I have to take my UL electives at UMPI. My minor is in Educational Studies so I don't know where to get alternative credits from. I know I have to take at least 30 credits at UMPI but I'm not sure how I can optimize it to where I only take 30 credits at UMPI.

Have UMPI told you they wont take the ACE credit from InstantCert/InstantCredit? I wouldn't pay for the CLEP either in that scenario. You would be better using ModernStates prep course (free) and getting a free Clep voucher.
