UMPI requires students to have at least 3 credits (one class) in a foreign language. Students who already know a language that is not English are able to take an ACTFL exam.
For Arabic, the inexpensive Reading and Listening exams are NOT worth any university credit. However, the Writing or Oral exams are available for credit. https://www.languagetesting.com/lti/prod...ng_id/7169? For French, all 4 exams are worth credits. It might be worth spending a few weeks catching up on your French, or you can go with the easier (but more expensive) Arabic exams.
A UMPI degree usually costs $200-300 for Sophia courses + about $300 for Biology 101L (and a course of student's choice) from Study.com + either $2800 or $4200 for 2 or 3 sessions (4-6 months) from UMPI.
Other schools will likely cost anywhere from $2000-$4000 more than a UMPI degree. The easiest of these to plan for would probably be TESU. You can see degree plans for TESU here: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sa...ts_Roadmap
Excelsior could cost only slightly less than TESU, but it has historically been more difficult to plan for. Especially for Business degrees.
