The OP potentially has 44 credits, but they would have to apply first to see what will transfer. There might be BSW programs that will allow the student to test out of general education courses. Either way, there's no getting around the practica.
And how long would it take to complete a BSW versus say the BLS at UMPI? The BLS at UMPI can be completed in under 6 months. Doubtful that a BSW can be completed in that timeframe.
Most people don't complete competency-based bachelor's programs in six months. Most don't even complete them in one year.
The OP already has 44 credits. So they're not starting from scratch. We have had many people on here complete their UMPI degree in 6 months who start with nothing. I have not seen anyone take a year to complete their degree at UMPI.
