UMPI BLS with MIS, Project Management, and Management Minors

[ss20ts]

ss20ts, thanks for sharing this great info, and congratulations on the Summa Cum Laude graduation.

If you don't mind sharing, is there a particular reason you chose to do the BLS with 3 minors, rather than the BABA-PM? For comparison, I've read that the BABA diploma is titled Bachelor in Business Administration, Project Management and Information Systems.

It seems like the BABA might require less course load and yields a similar diploma title (major difference being BLS v. BABA, which for me could make a difference). Unless somebody already has most of the BLS electives completed, then perhaps the course load might have be about the same for 3 minors. I ask, because I want to consider if this is a valid path that might be worth considering for myself, even though it might require a few more courses.

I already had 2 associate degrees when I applied. I had 196 credits. To maximize my transfer credit the BLS was the best fit for me. I started off with just the MIS minor when I applied. Then I took a project management class and fell in love so I added that minor. I added the third minor in my 3rd and final term because I only needed 1 more class to complete it so I figured why not. 

When I transferred I would have needed to complete a lot more classes for the BABA. I came back for a second degree and am now completing my BABA. Because I did so many classes with my first degree I only needed to complete 10 classes for the BABA and 8 of them were the concentration courses.
