I'm looking for a degree audit for the History & Poli sci degree.
This may help you. It should at least give you an idea of where to start with the UL courses.

Yes, I know I have to complete 30 credits from UMPI but my question is can they be ANY 30 credits (as long as I have met the requirements for the History concentration in some other way)?
As I said, I don't know how many electives I'll be able to use from my BSc, however, I'm very confident the GEC will be waived.
Last week, I spoke to an employee at UMPI (not the YourPace enrollment counselor) and we discussed my BSc that is from Canada and she said she didn't see any reason why it wouldn't waive the GEC (she was familiar with the university I attended as it is only a few hours on the other side of the border from UMPI).
The link you provided goes to the Political Science concentration requirements, however, am I am doing History so I have been using this link -> http://catalog.umpi.edu/preview_program....turnto=119 to determine which courses I need.

I am not sure about this. I am inclined to say no because the lady at UMPI I spoke with did not tell me those would be waived. That said, I have 158 credits from my prior degree so I expect some of those will count towards general electives, I'm not sure how many yet thought.
