1) UMPI is very beloved because allows you to go quick and incur in less expenses. You can go more slow and pay more... if you really want to taste it maybe the better is go somewhere you can take one subject a time and spend time in it. All that said, UMPI has also normal online courses, where you can do one course at a time or more over several months. The issue here is that is that this way is more expensive. If you really want to go at your own pace you have a lot of options.

2) If you go to UMPI and have another degree general ed  courses are waived. If you have for some reason to take art history I and II remember that SOPHIA has these courses. They are not bad there and you make them at your own pace for cheap. You have the notes and go learning one question at a time with the theory written besides and audios. Later you do exams of each section and a final exam.

3) Don't assume that all your credits will transfer. Each university has their own politics. Sometimes very generous, other very restrictive. If we are talking about UMPI you will have to do 30 credits with them, no matter what. Most of them in the major your selected and upper level. Also since you have another bachelor they will wave you the general education requirements. If you like more History over Pol Sci You can go the history route and most subjects will be there. I think you still have to take some pol sci subjects, but please check it on their website or wait and somebody will comment on that one.

Good point. I went through and matched my classes (I have 180 from undergrad alone) and they all matched up to the objectives listed. Other than the language and 2D Obj art class. But I guess there is always a chance they reject it. I planned on doing 30 minimum. Is Sophia still ideal for language too?

Yeah I understand its geared towards fast-paced otherwise you are just wasting money. It would be nice to see how the modules actually work. Are there any videos or teasers out there?
