I have looked at the Pierpont AAS just for personal hoorah's but am unclear about the 12 RA credits. I've read only one needs to be graded, but I've not heard of any that aren't graded so that's confusing. I read in one of the threads that the school actually viewed some of the Sophia ACE type credits as RA . I can't find that information now though. I'm in the long rows of preparing for a degree at UMPI, hopefully, and loathe the idea of slogging through 4 more classes to get RA credits when I'll be staring down the barrel to do the 30 cr at UMPI and am trying to get through this Study.com BIO L. ( not loving it ) I am curious about the PUG associate though, mostly so I can pass on the information.

TECEPs count as RA credits at other schools, but they are pass/fail (not graded). UExcel exams are graded, but they're exams and don't count at Pierpont. The cheapest way to fill the Pierpont requirement is either the FREE Clackamas credit (not self-paced and limited places available) or the new $25 1-credit class from ASU. Fill everything else out with Sophia, Saylor, and/or the Google IT certificate. That's it. Pierpont has a bit of an odd definition as to what counts as RA and what doesn't.

If you've gotten everything done to be able to enroll at UMPI, you've probably met all of the requirements for Pierpont already. Except the 1-credit.
Geez, I keep forgetting TECEP's are p/f but RA. I pretty much do have everything except the one graded credit and am close to being able to enroll at UMPI. I was hoping for the March date to start but just don't know if I'll be able to rock through the few more courses I'm finishing. 
  Thanks for the help.
