I transferred in 90, I did everything listed here for Sophia (both GE and electives), Bio lab at Study.  Added a UL elective and a core from Study as well.

@jd0uglas36

Is it possible to transfer in the 90 credits entirely from Sophia without using Study.com OR do would someone need to take a UL elective and core class from Study.com. While SDC is not that expensive and I could probably take those 2 classes in one month for a total of $200, I would like to avoid paying the $200 from SDC if not needed? 

With the addition of the Intro to Chemistry w/Lab or Human Bio w/Lab courses, I am wondering it would be possible to transfer 90 credits in the BABA Mgmt with Leadership concentration?

I am helping my son degree plan and we would like to avoid paying unnecessary fees even if it is $200. Can he transfer in 90 credits solely with Sophia? Then, he could take the remaining 30 classes at UMPI? 

I am seeing contradictory advice of only being able to get to 81 credits max from Sophia for the UMPI degree vs. 90 credits. The BLS with Mgmt concentration might be different than the BABA Mgmt and Leadership concentration.

If he needs to take UL classes, does it make more sense to take them from SDC from a cost stand point or take an additional 9 credit hours at UMPI. Looking at the tuition cost of UMPI at $1400 per term, it seems like it makes more sense to pay $199 month for SDC even if it is 2 months to take 9-12 cr hrs at $400 total vs. the UMPI $1400 amt. If he needs to take several SDC courses, so be it, I just want to make sure we clearly identify exactly what they are now so we don't waste time and money.

Thanks,

I would definitely take as many credits as possible and only do the bare minimum at UMPI if you are looking at it from a cost standpoint. 

Having an extra 9-12 credit hours to do at UMPI would probably make you end up paying more than if you did SDC for 1 or 2 months.
