There really isn't a way to find out exactly how to model the degree at UMPI when you have so many credits for possible transfer, the best you can do with the transfers you have is that it would take up 90 credits towards the degree, you still have to complete 30 credits for the Your Pace BA History/Political Science minors.
Yeah, the lack of an overarching model that pools together all the transfer streams is unfortunate, but I imagine most applicants don't really need that functionality. I've already applied, and the degree model that uses all of the coursework from my first B.S. suggests everything is mostly as expected within the History major and aligning with the spreadsheet. I'd have to clarify with the advisor later of course, and I'm open to being totally misguided on all this.
I guess I'm confused by the specifics of the 90-credit rule when I have a previous degree. Since the GEC is waived and I only need 30 credits completed at UMPI (12 of those within the major itself, 9 of those being UL, etc. etc.), does this mean that I could transfer in 30 CHs that help complete the History major distribution requirements out of the 48 total that are ultimately required for the major + ~45 CHs from SDC/Sophia that are directly relevant to help fulfill minor requirements? As laid out on the spreadsheet, these transfers would slot neatly into everything I need for any/all of the minors, and I could complete the outstanding requirements at UMPI for any/all of the leftover major/minor requirements in exactly 10 UMPI courses. I'm still unclear on how courses can apply within both the major and potential minor(s), and I'd drop them if I'm incorrect in assuming that courses can appear in both the major and a minor at UMPI.
