UMPI BAS to BS

[natshar]

I've completed the BLS and then went onto complete a BA at UMPI. It's not easy to be accepted into the BAS for YourPace students. Most - like myself - were put into the BLS instead.

Yeah, I have heard a few stories.

Would you mind to share some stories? Because I am hesitate to make decision between BA and BLS.

A BA in Project Management would be a better boos to your resume than a BLS with a concentration in Project Management. I would try to get the BA every time. This does not include the BAS. A BAS at UMPI is, as said, difficult to get into. You probably won't be able to. But a BAS, if you were able to get permission to get one, would still (IMO) sound better on a resume than a BLS.

Well said. 

IMO I think the hierarchy goes like this:

BLS - bottom 
BAS
BA/BA- best

Take it from someone who actually has a BAS (not from UMPI though). For one a lot job applications have a drop down box to make your highest degree. A few times ive seen the chocie say BA/BS as the only bachelors options. I always feel like I have to explain my degree. People know what a BA or BS and won't question it. 

Dont worry about multiple degrees. Just get one first. And if I were you I'd have it be a BA or BS. And since UMPI doesn't offer a BS then get a BA.
