Maximize transfer credits or just jump in? (UMPI)

I'm working with a few people there to try to get this changed! I have their BLS and now want the BA in Business Administration with Marketing Concentration that starts next month. I don't mind taking an additional 30 credits. Please take my $$$. HA.

1) When you submit your ROUGH DRAFT for a class, ASK JESSICA for a new class to start work on it ASAP.
2) Don't be afraid to ask Jessica to give you a multiple choice class exam versus an essay class so you can take "breaks" from your other class.
3) A good rule of thumb is to try to have 2 classes active at all times.

If you intend on grad school at UMPI ... DO NOT TRANSFER THE FOLLOWING IN:
BUS 335 Organizational Behavior, this will double as OLS 550
BUS 440 Business Analytics, this will double as OLS 610
BUS 469 Strategic Professional Communication, this will double as OLS 620

Yeah... That's right, THREE of my undergrad classes transferred into my GRAD masters degree.

FYI To others I did not do the BLS, ss20ts did 3 BLS and can speak better on those. I did the BABA Management & Leadership.
Hi! Just to clarify on this. If I transfer these in they won’t count in the masters program? But if I take them at UMPI, they will?

The thing is... We don't know yet. It hasn't been truly officially announced yet on these. I don't know if this is even supposed to be public knowledge or not so we should probably keep it on the downlow until UMPI formally announces it. It's just whatI was told. I might've gotten lucky, and it might not be true to the next cohort.
