I know a middle-aged person wanting to get a second bachelor from somewhere to modernize her resume (and remove the old 1990s graduation date).
Perhaps UMPI for a Bachelor's instead? The cost would be roughly the same, or only slightly more than, a second degree from COSC. Almost certainly faster, too.
Thanks, I didn't know UMPI was generous with transfer credits. I think that would work well for her to modernize her skills and resume a bit. She's got good work experience but some gaps in work history raising a family so a newer degree should help her a little. I personally think she should consider a master's, but another 15 or so credits of undergrad would probably be a lot cheaper.
UMPI is very generous with transfer credits. With a first Bachelor's degree, I think all GEC requirements are waived (so no science-with-a-lab and no foreign language, I think). I'd get in touch with ss20ts about the policy for 2nd degrees at UMPI.
