UMPI Requirements
^^
Ok, we looked over the learning objectives and cross referenced those with her transcript. Did we miss any classes?? Or are there any classes we got wrong that actually don’t meet the requirements?

3A is covered by Algebra, not Physical science. 3A can be covered by Physics, but Physical Science is not the same as physics. And you've already got algebra anyway. You have Freshman English I & II, plus English Comp II. This is probably a typo, but Freshman English and English Comp are (or at least should be) the same thing. 5E is American Government at UMPI.

Add up all of the separate courses you have listed for the GEC (I.E., count Freshman English I only once even though it shows up multiple times), including ones not yet taken. The Spanish CLEP only counts as 3 credits for the GEC. If it's less than 40 credits (13 classes + 1-credit science lab), she may need to take a couple of Sophia classes to boost her credit count.

The Institutes is gone, I'm sorry. She's not getting credit for that ever. They've refused to transition over to the new system and give credit to students who already took the course.

Just wondering, has mom decided on the degree path yet? Is she still leaning towards BLS Education minor? There are three things you should work on right away. You should quickly make your decision and start working on the transferable courses now.

1) Apply to UMPI and send all transcripts over ASAP and a couple weeks BEFORE application deadline, verify you're accepted. We've had people post that they weren't accepted even though they applied a couple months before deadline, some fell through the cracks.

2) Your document is only in reference to the General Education requirements, you should create a spreadsheet of the 40 courses you need to take to complete the degree, each course can fit multiple requirements and that's going to cause confusion. Post your spreadsheet as a link to your one drive or google drive, make the file viewable (not editable, remove personal info).

3) Don't dwell on looking at previous credits, move forward in completing required courses that you can transfer in. The BLS Education has 60 or so free elective credits compared to the BA English/Communications or the BABA Marketing concentration, so you really need to decide the degree before you can move forward in taking transferable courses.
