You can get a BLS with a history minor. You'll have plenty of Pell to cover your tuition. The max Pell anyone can receive is $7395 for the 24-25 academic year. No idea where the $12K came from. Don't forget to add UMPI to your FAFSA.

The amount is derived from three "terms" I was supposedly approved for @  $3690 per. I have no idea how long a term is, according to the FAFSA.

It's a little confusing on what's happening, just like your previous thread in regards to the 1 credit ASU class being $400.  As my advice again from post 6 of this thread - It's best to listen to advice from senior members and moderators than it is 'sales' staff at the institution: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...-NIGHTMARE
 
Basically, In addition to that, you really need to follow through with the addendum and template.  It's great you're providing some details, but without a bigger picture of what's happening, it's hard to provide you any concrete advice, with more details, we'll get to know your commitments, credits, study habits, etc:  Please update us with the info asked for here: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Area-works

People make mistakes, they're only human, it may have been a one-off situation, look past it and move on...
Something I learned a little too late in life - Appreciative Inquiry - I have been practicing it daily since mid 2021.
Always - Treat others the same way you want to be treated - be courteous, helpful, respectful, and thankful.
What do you find confusing or lacking clarity? I'm asking for suggestions about where to apply that accepts ACE credits, that fall within the budget (or close to it) of my PELL award amount, and that offer anything in the fields of study of general social science, history, interdisciplinary degrees, or anthropology. How is that confusing? 

The thing is, I have never been rude or discourteous to anyone at UIU. I have been gracious and gratefu when I've actually been able to get any sort of clear response from them. l  mentioned how rude they had been and how demeaning their treatment of ME has been. So, getting a reply here about how I should be kind and courteous seems like another slap in the face. I came here to ask for advice and instead you give me a lesson on the Golden Rule??? And to top that off, you refer to a very old post of mine where yes, I had some incorrect advice from ASU and I was confused by that. What is your point in rehashing my very old post, other than to point out how I make things confusing, apparently repeatedly???  I am under a great deal of stress at the moment. You suggest kindness but you post in a condescending manner. 

PLEASE feel free not to respond to any of my posts, since you find them so confusing. 

I did figure out the ASU credit and got the AAS from Pierpont.
