Help with UMPI admissions requirement
#1
Hey I am a prospective international student. I didnt have a good time in my home town and and struggled with mental health issues (covid,family issues). Therefore I was enrolled in my countries university but I didnt take any courses or completed any. Hence there are no transcripts it is all empty. To Americans this is unthinkable but there is no tuition here so I was basically a student on paper. Personally I do not think the rules were ever made for this type of situation. I did graduate from my countries equivalent to highschool though.

During my time I worked as a part time cashier.


"

  • Students who do not have any college credits must submit the following:
    • Provide high school transcript, high school equivalency test (HiSet), or GED
    • A resume to indicate activities and experience post high school diploma (or equivalent)

  • "


YourPace Admissions Requirements - YourPace (umpi.edu)


I am getting closer to the 90 credit mark on third party course providers. My situation might seem odd to some.

My question is : Do I include being once enrolled on paper? I cannot send anything to WES that is not there I can only send them my hs transcript. And how should the rest of the resume look like? Is there anything required from my employer or should I simply list what I did?

Sophia is college (equivalent) credits, so you don't have to worry about that. Some students have needed to include a resume anyway, but I honestly wouldn't bother to include your university studies. You're in another country, so UMPI can't "see" them and they don't count.

The resume is mostly to see if you might be eligible for PLA credit or something like that. Most aren't. That's fine. UMPI classes are quick and easy to complete.

Welcome to the board, it's best for you to fill in the addendum and template, follow up with more details than what is requested from both. The reason is you want to provide a full picture of your scenario, I've had international students, people who have taken Nationally Accredited studies, etc, all have a stuck 'waiting' application as their international, national institution transcripts were on the National Student Clearing House, they 'know' what is on file. I would just apply and see what UMPI does... You can take up to 90 credits with Sophia.org alone for max transfer of credits for now.
