UMPI - Trying to Understand PL and ACE?

[bjcheung77]

<gasp> Another 77 is in the house!  Hey, just popping in to say um, Hi?  Is this the UMPI YourPace program you're looking at?  I just read the info on UMPI's website, it's really an interesting program. There may be a few courses that can't be transferred into the program. 30 credits minimum at UMPI but some program courses may not be available elsewhere, you may need to take more than the 30 credits.

This is what I would recommend you do for competency based degree programs, first and foremost is to pace yourself and not rush it:  Work on the cheap/easy/fast courses first - Complete all the General Education Requirements & Electives with alternative credit.  For the major or program requirements, complete what can be transferred into the program with alternative credits.  For courses that may take more time or are more expensive or harder to complete, take them at the university instead.

Update: Oh forgot, they accept ACE, so you don't really need to just take Sophia.org, you can take Study.com courses as well for example.
