If what you are saying is correct, UMPI would not allow double majors. But in their regulations it states that double majors are allowed. Or are double majors not allowed on YourPace? It does not state so on their homepage, which is quite odd. But since you are a student at UMPI, perhaps you have knowledge about the issue that has not been publicised?

You're not capped at 120 credits for a degree with multiple minors and concentrations. You're capped at 90 transfer credits. 

You don't have minors with a major. It sounds like you're confusing things. There are concentrations and there are minors. Two different things. It's also rare that someone completes multiple minors. 


You don't have a double major in YourPace. You're reading the on campus website and it doesn't apply to YourPace.
That is exactly how I understand the rules. There is no cap on the number of total credits, only on transfer credits.
I am aware that there is a difference between concentrations and minors. So it is in theory possible to complete several minors and concentrations within a major, typically in business. And double majors are prohibited on YourPace.

If I sound confused, it is because I am some what confused. Partly contradictory information has been posted by people who have experience with UMPI. It is even more confusing that UMPI has one set of rules for brick & mortar students, and another one for Your Pace, and very limited information is provided on the YourPace homepage.
