I usually don't argue, but that would be incorrect. I do understand what you are saying though and I am glad to explain further. I completed the BLS - Management during the summer time last year, the BA in History/Poli Sci during the fall after that, and I did another BA in Business Admin just recently. I only had to do 3 classes for the BA in Business Admin this year. So you can transfer them all in and there is only a one time residency requirement for 30 credits:
This came from Jessica herself last year when speaking to her: "You only need to meet residency once and then you need to meet the requirements of the degree you are pursuing..."
From the catalog: "All four-year degree candidates must complete at least 30 credit hours of study through UMPI in order to receive a baccalaureate degree."
From the catalog: "(1) The first degree must have been awarded; (2) The student must apply through Admissions for subsequent degrees; (3) A minimum number of credits must be earned beyond the total hours earned for the previous degree: 15 for each additional Associate, 30 for each additional Baccalaureate."
All it is saying is that you just have to (1) complete 30 credits at UMPI 1 time (2) and provide 30 credits either from UMPI or elsewhere towards the degree you want to do. I've done courses from Sophia, Straighterline, Study.com, and many universities/colleges to complete these degree requirements.

For example, the first time you do a bachelors at UMPI, you can transfer in 90 credits, but you must do 30 credits with them. For the second, third, fourth, and so on, there is no minimum requirement. You could transfer in all the credits needed and complete the degree that way. You would just have to pay for that semester to be eligible to graduate. I did Rowan since it's nearby and because that is where I started when I graduated high school. I was a community college student for almost 7 years before graduating.
Quote:This is totally incorrect regarding UMPI. Once you graduate with one Bachelors degree, if you want to enroll again for a Second Bachelors degree, you have to complete another 30 semester hours in residence at UMPI. You cannot transfer in all of the degree requirements using alternative credit and just collect a second or third degree without meeting both the university redicence requirements AND the individual degree and/or minor requirements.
