Work experience

[caledonia]

On the 2019-2020, the catalog states that for a student to be admitted in the YourPace programme requires the student to have at least 2 years work experience. However, on the 2021-2022 catalog, it simply states "Prior college and/or work experience is required for admission into the YourPace programs". I currently have 1 year and 8 months of post high-school work experience, does anyone have any idea of how strongly the "post high-school work experience" is enforced and would I be admitted. (I have met all the academic requirements)

The work requirement in the most recent catalog (2021-2022) doesn't include a minimum amount of time but uses the word "some." To me, 1 year and 8 months certainly qualifies as "some." So, you should be fine. The final decision will, of course, be up to UMPI admissions.

It should also be noted the minimum age appears to be 24 years old for YourPace rather than 20.

Not sure if the age requirement will affect you, but I wanted to mention it just in case.
