UMPI Degree Planning Questions

[bjcheung77]

There are credits and then there are requirements... many people think of double dipping for COSC/UMPI towards the requirements, but what you really need to look at is the credits. Courses may hit multiple requirements, but you still need to get the total number of credits to complete the degree. That's why I don't really bother with the requirements and make sure to hit enough credits (which in turn, hit all the requirements). Whenever you see duplicate in the templates/wiki, it means that course has been taken for another field/requirement has been met as a course has completed to fill the slot, you don't have to take it again. You can transfer over 90+ credits into the UMPI degrees, but only 90 credits will go towards the degree, 30 credits must be done at UMPI.
