Framed UMPI Diploma

[joshua27]

Also, I wanna add, I'll still complain a bit about the look of the degree and fonts. Love the frame, for sure.

But as a professional graphic designer for 20 years, I gotta say, the font selection on the actual degree is terrible. And the curved text. It really does give it the appearance that it was designed in Microsoft Word.

The frame def makes it all look better tho! And it's still something to be proud of. Good choice, OP!

Agreed, the word art shadow on the font kills me lol.  That said it does look quite good in the frame.  Hopefully UMPI will update it in the future and everyone can get a fresh copy.

For everyone complaining about the appearance of the UMPI diplomas, stop.  I was among your ranks but honestly, after getting my diploma framed up in the frame that I purchased off the UMPI Spirit Store, it looks pretty damn good.  I still think the font utilized for the University name should have been in Olde English lettering but it sort of fits the theme once it is in the frame.

Check it out and let me know what you think!

Are minors printed on the diploma??? Where‘s the major on this diploma???

What is missing? I am confused, you have the screenshot in your post. If you read the screenshot, the concentration is what doesn't show... BA (degree) Business Admin (major), Minor MIS. If it was me, I would have recommended them to leave all other concentration/minors out of it... too cluttered if someone has two minors or the triple minor I usually recommend. The main thing is the BA BA, that's it... leave the concentration and minors within the transcript if they need reference to that.

My diploma does not list the concentrations (project management and information systems)

I love it when the school name has color on the diploma. It livens it up and makes the whole diploma look more balanced. I also much prefer the curved alignment better than a straight alignment. I think it looks great even without the frame, but the frame really does elevate it to a top tier presentation.

Well I‘d miss the Major concentration but it seems minirs are printed and major not. A few days ago you recommended a double major over a major and two minors in my thread. So I assume my double minor would get printed?

I have found this:

So if I understand correctly what Bazbug said:
„ My diploma does not list the concentrations (project management and information systems.“

Double majors still not printed on diploma??

Weird!

A double major would be something like BA Accounting & BA Business Admin. Technically, it should show up, I've not seen anyone here do a double major and report back how it looks... They allow this, but again, it doesn't really matter what is printed, it matters on the transcripts as other institutions look at that for entry requirements and your record. When looking at a diploma farther away, that detail isn't really noticeable...

Majors and Concentrations are not the same thing. With the BABA, Business Administration is the Major. Then you also have a Concentration. Mine is Marketing. My BABA does NOT list the Concentration. My BLS DOES list my Minors. For the BLS, the Major is Liberal Studies.
