Encouraged by UMPI Enrollment Advisor to Enroll

[ss20ts]

Do not apply until you've completed all of the courses you want to transfer in. Once you apply, you'll be accepted quickly and you're automatically enrolled at acceptance. You will need permission from your advisor to transfer in courses after you're accepted.

The enrollment counselors do not work. at UMPI like the professors do. They outsource the enrollment counselors. Their job is to sell you on the college and enroll as many students as possible. They may get a bonus for each student. No one knows.

Stick with your plan for March. You know how busy your life is around the holidays and what you're comfortable with.

Advisors don't accept transfer credit. The Registrar approves transfer credit. The number of credits transferring in will be based on your courses. It has NOTHING to do with January or March. Don't let the enrollment counselors push you around! You also do not have to talk to them when they call or email you. I was the first one on here to complete a degree at UMPI so I know the place well. There are several others who have since graduated and many are now enrolled and taking classes. We can answer just about any question you have and we know far more than the enrollment counselors. We're also not trying to sell you anything. Seriously don't apply until you've completed the courses you want to finish at Sophia and elsewhere.
