Assistance with UMPI BABA degree?

Pierpont is free, and you may have enough credits for this right now. https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Pierpont_C%26TC You need 60 credits, which include: 3 credits in communications, 6 credits in math/science, 3 credits in social sciences, and 3 credits in computer literacy.

Of the list you posted, you're only missing: 3 credits in science or math (I suggest Human Biology or Environmental Science, for now; you will need at least one of these for UMPI) and Introduction to IT from Sophia. Since you're using a computer, you can probably pass Intro to IT in a day. Same with Human Biology. Environmental Science might take 2 or 3 days.

I see that you have not finished all of the classes on the list.
If you have not finished MTH105, take College Algebra OR a 2nd Science from Sophia.
If you have finished neither ENG101 nor COM101 yet, take Visual Communications from Sophia.
If you haven't finished Microecon, take Macroecon @ Sophia. You will need both for UMPI anyway.

You can get literally everything you need from Sophia. There are optional classes you can take at Study.com and maybe Coursera, but you'd need to sit down and plan things out.

Pierpont's next graduation date should be in April or May. If you're not going to graduate from EGCC before then, I would give serious thought to Pierpont. I don't know what your current salary is, but a 15% raise on just minimum wage (and you're hopefully already earning more than that!) would be almost $400/mo.

Thank you for all this! Unfortunately, I already graduated with my first AA back in 2013. I got hired later that year, and per our union contract, the AA or BA have to be attained while being an active employee. Because of that, I do not believe I am eligible for this program.
