I just began my journey into planning my degree, I watched a few videos, and decided I really like UMPI's YourPace program. My intended major is the bachelor of arts in history and political science - history concentration. I signed up for sophia.org, and began planning my classes. Right now I have 36 credits planned on sophia, but would like to plan as many as possible on there.
Here is a list of my current planned classes. If possible, I would like some help planning the rest.
ENGLISH COMPOSITION 1
ENGLISH COMPOSITION 2
CONFLICT RESOLUTION
INTRODUCTION TO ETHICS
ART HISTORY 1
INTRODUCTION TO STATISTICS
COLLEGE ALGEBRA
HUMAN BIOLOGY
ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE
US HISTORY 1
SPANISH 1
US GOVERNMENT

You'll also want to take US History II and Spanish II. Consider taking Art History II or Visual Communication instead of or in addition to Art History I. Art History I has a touchstone (assignment), but neither Art History II nor Visual Communication do. It's no problem to take Art History II before taking or without ever taking Art History I. The I and II refer to the time periods covered. They aren't really sequential pedagogically on Sophia. Art history courses will not count as "history" courses toward your major or concentration.

Instead of English Comp II, I recommend Workplace Writing II. It meets the same requirements, but has one less assignment.
Also, make sure you take both the Human Biology class *and* lab, which are separate on Sophia.

Welcome to the board... It's great you've created a post and thread, but that's basically all you've done... Where is the info on the addendum and template? This info will provide an overview of your situation, such as budget, current credits, study habits, etc... Without much info, your main advice is to follow the degree plans already on the WIKI. Do Sophia.org first, Study.com second (use the discounts in my Bio/Signature), and finish the remainder at UMPI for residency purposes...
