Quickest route to Bachelors with credit transfer

[rachel83az]

There is institutional GPA and whole-transcript GPA.

UMPI and TESU (and most other schools) only calculate your GPA based on the classes you take from them. This is your institutional GPA.

I believe (though you might want to double-check) that the navy will calculate whole-transcript GPA. So, taking classes at ASU and transferring them to Pierpont should work for the immediate future.

FWIW, TESU could be cheaper for military than UMPI, but that'd only be if you don't need progressive GPA updates. Active military has a 24-credit residency requirement at TESU, but 18 of those can come from TECEPs. Unfortunately, TECEPs are pass/fail, just like Sophia classes. Also, being a full-time student at TESU, even at military rates, is just too expensive, IMO.

So, go for UMPI and take their classes. It should be pretty fast and cheap.
