@LookMaIMadeIt, great stuff! Thanks for answering my questions, now we know more on your commitments and situation. Yes, UMPI is a good choice and a good fit; With your varying number of hours a week, it may require you to be very diligent with your time management to get things done during the term.

I would get as many ACE courses transferred in so you don't have to worry about those GEC requirements, these are not graded but it's a good idea to do a good job on them to prepare you for UMPI. I wouldn't rush things at UMPI as these are graded, especially if you're planning to go to grad school later on.

As I mentioned in a previous post above, I also agree that the BABA PM/IS concentration is best for your skill set. Again, good luck, have fun, enjoy your journey and learning experience... I will review your spreadsheet and comment on it later.

I think you are only looking at the totals tab. There’s 4 sheets. 1.  General Education 2.  Business Core. 3 Pm concentration and 4. Totals. 

Yeah the BLS would be great to get it done slightly faster but I want the BA as most job postings I see require BA or BS
Thanks !

They're really just requiring a bachelor's degree. The BLS is definitely faster than the BA. I've done both and the BLS was faster and easier. More exams than the BA as well.

So, I glanced at the spreadsheet, seems fine. I see you're doing the BABA PM/IS as I originally thought you would do... I see 39 credits at UMPI, I think you can still get a class or two in there after you apply and see how things are transferred. UMPI should advise what other final course or two you can transfer in from Study.com or another provider...
