The difference in requirements for completing a first bachelor's degree before either UMPI or TESU is notable. For UMPI, GEC is waived. For TESU, gen eds and electives are waived, including the cornerstone. However, if you're trying to complete both degrees in parallel, then you will need to complete TESU first. If you complete UMPI first, then TESU will want 24 new credits after the UMPI degree is conferred. There is no such requirement from UMPI. If this is your plan, then work with Jessica so you don't waste time on GEC, assuming you have some left, since they would be waived after completing the TESU degree. However, if you want to complete UMPI first, then plan to complete the final 8 courses for TESU after the UMPI degree is conferred, and don't worry about the cornerstone or gen eds.
