Summer 2021 Session 1 Updates
#1
Like we did for the Spring Session 2 Updates, let's do another thread for everyone learning on UMPI's YourPace for the summer school session of Summer 2021 Session 1!

Summer 2 Session will be between May 10, 2021 and end on July 2, 2021. If you haven't signed up for UMPI yet the deadline for the next session will be June 21st to join us on July 5th in session 2 for the summer. 

This is meant to be a gross general topic about anything relating to UMPI for Summer Session 1 Students.
  • What classes are you taking?
  • How are you feeling?
  • Any classes causing frustration?
  • What did you pass?
  • What are you learning?
  • What are you doing?
Share your experience with our forum so future students and UMPI's staff that reads this forum can see how we feel! 

Keep us updated on Your Pace.

Well because of the positive experiences with UMPI, I decided to transfer from TESU to UMPI. TESU, I only had five clasees left in order to graduate with a BSBA Accounting. I start my journey tomorrow with the Summer session 1. My first two classes are English Comp 1 and Spreadsheet Applications. My goal is the BA Accounting.

If you find yourself struggling with any class, please reach out to your professor. All of the professors I had at UMPI, we wonderful to work with and were very responsive. This wasn't my experience at other schools. The professors at UMPI actually teach on campus as well so they're not just adjunct professors who are teaching 1 class at a bunch of different online schools which was my experience at the school I was attending prior to UMPI. I had many of the business professors and they were very helpful. One professor had an hour long Zoom meeting with me on Christmas Eve to help me with my project when I was stuck. I still can't believe he worked with me on a holiday. Good luck!!!

mrpower, I would just apply at UMPI and see where these courses go into their degree plan, you essentially have 30 credits at minimum to take at UMPI. Once you have an evaluation, you can plan the remaining courses, either complete them at UMPI if they're cheaper/easier/faster or take the remaining LL @Sophia.org and UL @Study.com if you require more than the required minimum.

Already applied and start tomorrow. There was a bit of difference with what was accepted at UMPI compared to TESU. I did knock out a few other classes with Sophia and SDC while waiting for the session to start. When all said and done I will probably have around 170 credits completed upon graduation. So far it has been a great experience working with UMPI.

I had a bit of a slow start last session with 3 classes completed at UMPI and 2 completed at SDC. Work has been ridiculous (I’ve been working 12-16hr days) and finding the time to get in a lot of classwork has been tough. Goal is to finish in the next 1-2 sessions. I have 7 classes left Ready for the upcoming session and now that I have a feel for the setup hoping I can buckle down and at least get 5 classes down this session.

What degree are you referring to as a BAS?

Hey everyone! I started my MAOL today! The class so far feels like an upper level class, just with a stricter rubric! My professor is Professor Wickramasinghe. Data-Driven Decision-Making and Planning is the class name. I will have to do a 4500 word essay plus a five page bibliography. There are also 12 milestones.

The milestones are rather simple, but, you must refer to the final the entire time. Each milestone becomes your outline basically.
