Hey everyone, I couldn't find a definitive answer on this topic, so I thought I'd seek your insights.
When I enrolled in my local community college, they informed me that my previous credits from another college were no longer valid due to their age (over 10 years old). Consequently, I never considered using those older credits and have been taking Sophia courses intensively to accumulate 90 credits before my UMPI start date on May 8th.
Interestingly, found out just today that UMPI has accepted my older credits, which my community college had previously rejected. So I went way overboard on my Sophia courses, since they accepted 76 credits from my previous schools! lolol
So, my question: Does UMPI's acceptance of my old credits effectively "refresh" them? If I apply to another college in the future, will they accept these credits based on UMPI's decision, or will they refer to the original source/original date earned?
I'm currently in the BYU-Pathways program for a year, which will allow me to enroll in BYU-Idaho at a reduced cost of $79 per credit. So I'm curious if I can rely on using those older credits again when I enroll at BYU-Idaho.
I understand that it's best to ask BYU-Idaho directly, but since my enrollment there is still a year away, I thought I'd explore your opinions on this matter.
Sorry for the long post, and thanks for all that you guys do!
