Degree advice
#11
It looks like you need the following:

UMPI
College Comp II

Sophia
Art History I or II
a Math course (Stats or College Algebra)
a Physical Science course (Environmental Science or Chemistry)
Intro to Ethics
Microeconomics
Financial Accounting
7cr of electives (so 2 3cr courses and then a 1cr course that doesn't duplicate what you have)

I'm not sure if UMPI will take your Org Behavior course to meet that requirement, and then just have you take another UL course as an elective?

And then you need to decide whether you can take the remaining ~14 courses in the time you want to at UMPI, or if you want to take 4 courses at SDC to make it more doable to do UMPI in ~2 terms (the average here for 10 courses I think).

SDC Options:
ACC 301: Applied Managerial Accounting
BUS 303: Management Information Systems
BUS 304: Leading Organizational Change
BUS 306: Strategic Human Resources Management
BUS 309: Digital Marketing & Advertising
BUS 307: Leadership & Organizational Behavior (if they won't take your CC course)
BUS 312: Advanced Operations Management

Totally up to you, but I'd certainly take the Sophia courses now, and then apply to UMPI to see how everything shakes out - and then you can decide what you want to do with the SDC courses.

I think that's a great deal for getting the 'business core basics courses' done quickly...

@Billiejo113, Yeah, as I mentioned, take what you need from Sophia.org and with the remaining 13 courses or 39 credits, see which Sophia.org or Study.com or another ACE provider. If you really like to take the 13 at UMPI, then it really depends on your commitments and time management, it's do-able in two sessions.

Thank you. I'm glad I double checked on the micro/macro information and someone recommended the Google coursa class for PM which I can use as an elective.  That leaves me with the remaining at UMPI, that may change in the coming months as we hear about how different the classes may or maynot be on brightspace. For now though I think I've figured it. Thanks so much for the help.
