I am missing 6 credits - any suggestions which courses from Sophia would satisfy?

You cannot go by what's in DegreeWorks, as it is not really set up fully for the BOG. Do you already have 60 credits (with at least one RA graded credit)? Check what classes you may have already taken for these requirements from the options below (from the Wiki):

Mathematics/Science
  • Introduction to Statistics (not Foundation of Statistics)
  • College Algebra - MTH 1212 College Algebra
  • Introduction to Human Biology - Although this gets listed as an elective on your transcript, it should also count as a core course towards graduation.
  • Environmental Science - Although this gets listed as an elective on your transcript, it should also count as a core course towards graduation.
  • CSM Learn - Not a Sophia course, but a good option for students who wish to avoid math for various reasons. Transcripts as MTH1207 - Fundamentals of Math Concepts
The Sophia course Introduction to College Mathematics does not count for a Pierpont degree. It is considered to be a 0-credit remedial-type course. Introduction to Nutrition does not count towards the General Education Science requirement but should count for credit.

Computer Literacy
  • Introduction to Information Technology has been reported to work. 
  • Study.com's "Library Science 101: Information Literacy" is also known to meet this requirement.

That's correct, I would go with the WIKI info and what's listed in the reply... As your previous posts didn't have anything in the addendum or template, it's hard to see where you're at. Make sure to have the 60+ credits in total, 1 RA graded credit, 15 general education, and 45 elective credits that can be anything at all. Continue with the Google certs if you wanted to ladder up to the UMPI BAS later...

You are correct - I was looking at degree works , in there earthing else marked as completed except these two requirements  - I have 75 credits - mix of RA and ACE credits, I guess I was fooled by degree works 

If I have completed 60 credits requirements, I can ignore this ?

Yes, disregard it as that's for the 'regular' non BOG AAS degrees, those have specific requirements. Review post #3, as long as you've got those #'s properly, you're good to go!
