Questions about tentative UMPI degree plan
#5

The BABA has a ton more required courses, and very few Free Electives, while the BLS has 6-7 courses in the minor/concentration, and a ton of space for Free Electives.  But that's letting the tail wag the dog, to decide based on how your credits will transfer instead of looking at what degree you're better off with.

Since you didn't put the course number, I'm going to guess that Biology of the Environment w/Lab is a Biological Science course, so you don't have a Physical Science.  I also think that the LEGAL & ETHICAL ENVIRONMENT OF BUSINESS requirement is not satisfied by a Business Law course, but is by an UL Business Ethics course (based on how they bring in SDC's courses for that), so Business Law is just an elective (a bummer).

For the BABA, you need the following (assuming Sophia):
Intro to Ethics
Environmental Science or Chemistry
Sociology
Spanish
American Govt
Business Comm

That leaves you with 16 courses to take at UMPI, which is a lot.  So you can decide if you want to take up to 6 courses at SDC:
BUS 303: Management Information Systems
BUS 304: Leading Organizational Change
BUS 209: Mentoring & Leadership Development in the Workplace
BUS 306: Strategic Human Resources Management
BUS 309: Digital Marketing & Advertising
BUS 307: Leadership & Organizational Behavior
BUS 312: Advanced Operations Management

These are all UL, and require at least 1 paper/project each, so it's also a lot of work, but $200 or $400 or $600 spent at SDC might save you a full $1400 term at UMPI, so it's worth thinking about.

Save Business Math and the hands-on art course for UMPI, those are probably easy A's.

Business Law does not transfer in any ethics courses. It only transfers in for Business Law. UMPI is only 1 paper/project. It's not an at least. It's 1.
