When you say you have 40 RA credits, are you counting SDC, SL, and Sophia? If so, those aren't RA. Those are alternate credits. If not, please list the credits that you've taken from elsewhere. Also, your formatting is a bit wonky; it's easier to read if you put everything in a list instead of side-by-side.

The requirements haven't changed from that spreadsheet, but I wouldn't follow it 100% either. We recommend students take English Comp II from UMPI instead of Sophia or SDC. It's so much easier and faster that way. GEC 2E can be met with Sophia's Art History (either one). You don't have to CLEP history; you already have that requirement met. You can see GEC requirements for UMPI at http://catalog.umpi.edu/preview_program....3&poid=239

Your post is difficult to understand. I would go in and re-do it, making it clear which courses you've taken, and list by course provider. (So all Sophia's listed, then all SL's, etc.) If you have RA credit, you need to list that as well - list by school, include course #, full course name, # of credits, and grade if less than a C.

So, I think that your SDC credits are (at best) electives. Were you trying to go for a CS degree before you settled on Accounting? Thankfully, the Accounting degree does have 18-21 electives that can eat those credits.

Of your Sophia credits, I think the only one that applies to accounting would be US History.

For StraighterLine, I think IT Fundamentals gets discarded.

All in all, I think you have 19 "useful" credits + 18 or 21 electives out of potentially 90 total that you can bring to UMPI. UMPI counts Chem I + Lab as only 4 credits, not the 5 you have listed. https://www.straighterline.com/colleges/...uivalency/

You have some things you should switch around:

Take College Comp I, II & Creative Decision Making at UMPI
Don't bother with College Algebra, you already have Calculus (I don't think you need both)
You don't need a Biological Science w/Lab, so just take the Sophia Human Bio course
Skip Environmental Science, you have a Physical Science + Lab
Skip Sociology CLEP

It's super confusing bevcause what you say you completed in your post, and what your spreadsheet shows completed doesn't match, so I'm just throwing out what I see you don't need. If you've already completed it, then don't worry about it.
