UMPI transfer plan

[anthony3070]

I've been soaking in as much info as possible and have a plan that I've already started on, the goal being a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration – Management & Leadership Concentration from UMPI.

I'm following ashkir's spreadsheet linked here:

Awesome sheet and very easy to follow! 

Couple questions:  For the elective classes that I will transfer over to UMPI - Can I take any class that Sophia offers? Also, Is anything on that spreadsheet no longer valid/outdated?


My plan is to get through all these various classes from Sophia, Study.com and Instantcert. I would then apply and transfer them to UMPI for the next start period, which I'm guessing is in late October?



I'd like to thank all of you for providing priceless information to help with this. Seriously, I'd be absolutely lost without this place.

If it helps the official database of sorts is available

https://www.maine.edu/students/transfer-guides/

Go to transfer equivalency -> Main Menu -> Transfer course equivalencies -> Transfer courses or test credit and follow the prompts...

They are processing my transfers as we speak, I'm carrying a bunch from Sophia so will confirm when I get it through...

There is one change in provider, InstantCertCredit is getting out of the ACE credit, the courses that are mentioned to be taken through them should go through Sophia.org and Study.com, it's easier to stick with those two providers as your one, two punch... the rest should come from UMPI, I would make sure to update your personal spreadsheet with at minimum 10 courses at UMPI and to verify 24 upper level are showing in your spreadsheet template.

InstantCert's American Government and Spanish are gone so you can't take them there. Spanish is now available on Sophia. Psychology and Sociology have changed on Sophia since ashkir attended. The current courses still transfer just not the same as the previous courses. American Government you can complete at UMPI in just a few days so don't worry about finding it elsewhere.

  A few days ? Can you give something of an outline how American Govt works from UMPI ? I was going to take it through IC but....yeah....that and my spanish are down the tubes. Getting through Sophia Spanish now....

The course content takes maybe a few hours to read. The Final Assessment is a 3-5 page paper. I wrote mine in a couple of hours. Submitted the rough draft. Heard back the next day to submit it as is for the Final Assessment. I was completely done in 3 days. Several people on here completed the course in less than a week. It's one of the easiest courses in YourPace.
