UMPI Criminal Justice BA YourPace Program Completed

[slaterjack]

Well hello all,

       It has been quite the journey since I first joined here.  I actually joined in 2019, but due to some life things I couldn't dive into the scholastic world very much, but I did return in late 2022 and get serious about education.  I finished my Pierpont BOG in May of 2023 with the help of various people on this forum who I am forever grateful to and then signed up for UMPI which I started the same week I finished PP.

       As of this morning I have completed all of the work and turned in my final.  I actually can't believe I'm done.  Some of you know the Capstone class for CJ at UMPI is a 100 hour field work project that consists of 7 small reflection papers, getting time logs filled out correctly, a slideshow, and of course a final paper that is about 1300ish words.

      I haven't seen much about this program on here, so I just wanted to make a searchable thread for anyone who may be interested in the field and at anytime someone needs a question answered you can ask here or you can always send me a private message and I will be more than willing to give details or help out anyway possible.




Again, thank you to anyone I've ever bothered via your inbox and cheers to tackling a master's program next year after a long required break.

Congratulations! How was CRJ 100?

Not bad, 3 milestone papers under 2 pages each and then a 6ish page paper as well for the final, many courses are similar in nature.

Hey! Did you have Gibson? I just did milestone 1 and it took 9 pages for me to feel comfortable.  Am I overthinking it?

I had Gibson for a couple different courses, probably one of my fav profs.  9 pages is a lot, just remember during finals you get to turn in drafts so you don't have to feel super pressured to do everything perfectly the first time and if you have a question just ask the prof, they will usually answer the next day.
