We can't say that your philosophy credit will transfer to UMPI as a course which fulfills the GEC without knowing which university and which course. Then we could check the transfer database. Your best bet is to complete the ethics course on Sophia. We know that transfers and fulfills the GEC requirements.

Can someone explain to me how the Human biology lab from Sophia transferred as an Elective with 1 credit and did not fulfill GEC GLO 3E which is 4 credits in total?

I mean I completed Ens 1001, Human biology and human biology lab... I thought it would fulfill the complete requirements of science.

And I have yet to transfer my Language requirement .. which I plan to take an ACTFL French examination for that .. but I've already transferred in over 90 credits .. how does that work?

Strange. I would talk to your advisor. It may have been an oversight. That happens now and then.

If you transfer in more than 90 credits, that's fine. But only 90 of them will apply to the degree.

There are 3 science requirements: 
3C Biological
3D Environmental/physical
3E Lab

If you completed Human Biology at Sophia and took the lab at the same time, it should transfer to fill 3C and 3E at UMPI. You'll have to check with your academic advisor. It may be something overlooked. 

You can transfer hundreds of credits to UMPI. Only 90 will be counted towards your bachelor's degree. You must complete a minimum of 30 credits at UMPI.

@Alim83, you should create a spreadsheet template using the required courses and compare the options offered on the WIKI. Once done, link us to your spreadsheet if you have it on google drive or one drive. Have the link viewable and not editable, remove any personal details if there are any. It's good to know what other courses or requirements are missing and by seeing the spreadsheet, we'll know if you've followed the recommendations on the WIKI here and provide suggestions to complete the remainder of your degree requirements: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Category:UMPI

I just got back my transfer Eval for BLS Management Minor, I have 10 courses to complete with UMPI.
1) ENG 211 or HUM 103 ( which one should I pick )
2) French 101 or Spanish 101***** I am entirely fluent in French i.e, did grade school and high school in French ( is it wise to do ACTFL and then complete another elective .. or just complete the course seeing that I'm well versed in the language)
3)BUS 206
4)BUS 321
5)-10) And 6 other Electives.. ( I will probably go based on interest, but any quick and easy electives recommendations will also be appreciated)

I know there's a lot floating around on the forum ... But I would appreciate any specific advice to complete this in 1 Term.

Take HUM103 at UMPI. You can complete Spanish on Sophia and transfer it to UMPI or you can take the ACTFL exam. Either one is fine. Don't take it at UMPI. The professor is a complete PITA.

If I take the ACTFL exam I still have to do a residency of a minimum of 30 credits, how will that work.. will I have to complete another course credit with UMPI and an elective perhaps?

[rachel83az]

Yes, you can just do another elective. Another possibility would be maybe completing a second minor. You don't have to do that, but some people have done that when they needed to take another class or two for residency anyway.
