I assume you transferred in the max credits. Did it only take you one 8 week term to complete?

I did transfer in max credits. Yes, it just took one term to complete. I took 10 classes but only needed 3 to fulfill my management minor. The other 7 classes were all political science/history courses. It was very doable tbh. It wasn't easy but just being consistent and not letting off the gas definitely made it possible. I still had two weeks left of the term and could've taken more classes but I decided to take a break! haha

I’m starting at UMPI on 10/23 looking to complete the BLS with minor in Management. I have 11 classes to finish. 3 for the Minor and 8 free electives. Is there a special way I should go about requesting another course after I have submitted the final draft? Also, where can I find a listing of courses I can choose from for the 8 free electives courses?

You can ask Jessica for a list of all electives, or there's a location in your student portal as well. Make your electives into a second minor

Yeah, sometimes you want to re-read or review the posts instead of double posting the same question... But that's exactly what I tell people to do is for the electives, use it to create a second minor in something or taking courses that you're interested in. For example, if you're into using your BLS for the MAOL, take the 3-4 courses you know that will get you the MAOL 9 credits exemption OR if you're into the History, MIS, PM, or whatever other minor, you can add that in addition to what you have.
