I know that there are universities with generous transfer policies (~15-18 credits or half of the masters program), but I was under the assumption that it was still difficult to actually get the courses to transfer over. If OP decides to go to HAU, wouldn't they still pay the same 3k tuition even if they transfer courses from UoP? What's the point in taking any UoP courses in that situation? (It also looks like HAU only accepts 25% of a degree)

If OP decides to transfer out, the cheapest masters accepting 18 credit hours in a 30 hour program I'm aware of is Jacksonville State University’s Integrated Studies (Master of Arts).
Assuming they accept 18 credits from UoP: $428 per credit hour * 12 credit hours = $5,136 not including any other charges and you graduate with a MA in Integrated Studies.

Honestly, I don’t think any of this matters since we don’t know OP’s budget or actual goals for the degree. If the argument is UoP vs HAU, I choose WGU MBA.

Hello,

Yeah my main focus is getting the Bachelors so I can advanced on to the next position within my company so I went with competency based to speed up the process. I'll make a pretty generous salary after the fact. For the bachelors, I have to pay out of pocket; complete the degree, then apply for re-imbursement, which they only cover 50% of the degree. Masters degree they'll cover 100% if I do UoPx 100% since they are partners. Other then that, I dont get any thing for a masters if I went else where hence why HAU was a big option. I have 10 years of experience in my field; so having the most fancy looking school on my resume isnt a priority.

The masters is not too much of a rush to get as of the moment; just weighing some options. WGU is also a huge one I am considering but I feel like I'd be rushing for a degree since I only get 6 months to complete it for it to be worth the costs.

I think BJ is trying to reiterate is that I can transfer to HAU with UoP credits and If I decided to get another masters at UoP; The credits are already there.  I just thought I'd ask since they offered me free schooling; may take advantage of it if it was worth the time.
