New user - Looking for fast and easy degree - supernoms - 05-12-2025
I am canadian(if that matters)
Look for a fast and easy degree to complete ideally no math(Its hard to self teach math).
I have 0 ace credits and I am looking to ideally take them all on one platform if possible.
I read some threads on here and some people have said the ETAMU orginazational leadership is relatively easy to complete once you have the full transfer credits done.
Im looking for advice on alternatives if anyone has any.

UMPI BLS would probably be the best option for you

Welcome to the board, great initial post to get the ball rolling, it's best to provide a bigger overall picture of your scenario by filling in the addendum and template here: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-New-to-DegreeForum-How-this-Area-works
+1, I agree, for ETAMU or UMPI as great choices, you can get the 84-90 credits to max out the transfers before you fully decide where to go and for which degree. You can decide while you accumulate credits towards the degree of choice...

For most of the degrees at UMPI (and other institutions we recommend), you can transfer in the max for general education and electives, you want to finish off the degree at the university of choice due to residency requirements. UMPI is just an example, others include ETAMU, PUG/WGU, and more, etc.
