Felt a bit unhappy with my UMPI application experience

[ss20ts]

If you are expecting a WGU or SNHU experience at UMPI, you will be disappointed.

It's a small and disjointed operation that is frankly overwhelmed (yes they are hiring more). The school is the size of a high school and its yourpace section will probably outpace the on campus student body soon.

It isn't a hand-holding process, and you will likely have to send multiple reminder emails and follow up, just how it is.

I wouldn't say UMPI's on campus student body is the size of a high school. I graduated with 92 people. All high schools are not the same size. In rural Maine, this would be a HUGE high school. 

UMPI treats you like an adult. It's up to do check on your application and submit documentation. 

WGU was ridiculously disjointed when I applied. I went through 4 enrollment staffers! None could finalize the process until the last person. I spent over 3 months trying to be accepted. It was ridiculous as they had all of the documents for over 2 months and no one did anything. Financial aid at WGU is slower than molasses in January. Nothing at WGU was speedy for me. Even changing programs took over 6 weeks when it was supposed to take 2 weeks.
