Why do I suspect they meant to take 2 courses from them to determine if you can meet their standard? The ASU course and possibly other similar ASU courses are wonderful in that you can keep redoing until you get 100%. Does anyone not get an A on that series of courses? Are the prolific errors in your written English the cause of your problem?
I think the OP misread the email from the school. It doesn't say anything about 2 courses. It just says that he/she can take YourPace courses as a non-degree student.
As Old Guy pointed out, the OP (doctorTorres) can take the YourPace courses as a non-degree student, pass them (as they'd need to anyway) and then apply internally to be officially a student. If the OP couldn't pass the courses as required they wouldn't be able to complete the program anyway. I would add that the OP should plan on at least two terms (one to gain the faith of UMPI during the probationary term, while completing some needed courses, as they'll count - definitely focus on getting the best grades they can during this first term) and the following term(s) to complete as a degree seeking student and graduate.
I will add that any student on a probationary period from any school will not be eligible for financial aid until they return to good academic standing. So the 1st term (at least) would have to be paid out of pocket. This OP did not mention how they planned to pay, but it seemed worth mentioning for all to be aware.
