UMPI PM & IS Degree. Complete Newbie

[TooNee]

The GEC numbers are the objective numbers that UMPI uses - example, Learning Objective 1A (LO 1A). Some classes will fill in more than 1 objective - for example, English I from Sophia can cover Learning Objectives 1A and 1D. You need 40 credits for the GEC (general education).

For your general education requirements, follow the first class listed for each learning objective on this page for the simplest path, with the exception of 1B where I would recommend Workplace Writing II over Sophia's English II - Workplace Writing II is graded faster and has 1 less essay: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/UM...ts_Roadmap

For your major, follow the first Sophia class listed or the Study dot com class listed:

For free electives, you can do Sophia, Study dot com or something like the Coursera certificates.

Currently trying to decide on the GE classes for the PM & IS degree but I am seeing a variation of reults, which is expected, I found a degree plan through youtube but the youtuber is pushing Study.com/straighline all the way.
I'd prefer to go the Sophia route as much as possible because of it's affordability. 

They suggest Study.com/SL because they are making affiliate commissions.

With Study.com, you can only take a maximum of 5 courses per month, which can slow some people down. Also, Study.com/SL costs a lot more than Sophia and usually takes longer to complete.

You are right on the money! After watching a few more videos and seeing Study.com recommended by others I figured they must be paid.

Thank you.

I've seen his YouTube videos and he always recommends Study even when it makes no sense. The Google Sheets from UMPI YourPace Facebook group is a lot more practical. I'm linking it here, I'd recommend you check it out.
