TESU's English degree requires a couple of History courses in order to make it as cheap as possible. https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sa...egree_Plan
UMPI is a Communication/Journalism degree that happens to also have English: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/UM...egree_Plan
UMPI transfer credit can come entirely from Sophia and Study.com. TESU may require credit from other sources as well, including Coopersmith.
Are those credits from Open University? If so, I believe that they're RA and can be sent as-is to TESU/UMPI without having to pay for a 3rd party evaluation. If they're not from Open University, you'll have to have them evaluated. They should at least cover your math requirement for either TESU or UMPI.
Thank you so much, I had completely missed the UMPI possibility, and the Communication/Journalism actually looks like something I would be interested in. They are indeed Open University, this is fantastic if I don't need them evaluated! Really helpful.

Having said that, you need to decide if 30 credits at UMPI would be better for you, or a 15 credit flat rate option at TESU would fit your needs. Decide on the degree as well, I was thinking you can do the Metropolia 579 Euro 3 year option and just 'finish' it there for an amazing cheap price since you're in the EU... If you then want to continue with TESU/UMPI, you can transfer those into the degree of choice.
Thank you very much. Yeah, now I know about the UMPI option I will have to compare the two.
RE Metropolia ('Finish' it hah). I will look into as well. I say I am from the UK but it is actually a bit more complicated. I am from an island that is kind of the UK and kind of it's own sovereign state so things can get a bit convoluted in regards to my EU status! But 379 sounds appealing!!
