IT degree with A levels & 7 years of work experience

For the ACTFL, go with the cheapest option available. If you're fully bilingual with Russian, either listening (LPT) or reading (RPT) will be cheaper than the OPIc or the WPT. If you're hoping to completely fill your electives with language credits, that'd be the OPI or the OPIc.

* UMPI said "If you are an international student whose native language is not English, we waive the foreign language requirement."
So I guess that means I will need more electives?

Either that's a new policy or someone is telling fibs. If it's true, I would indeed assume that you'll need 3 extra elective credits. The RPT & LPT are pretty fast/easy/cheap if you're bilingual, and the credits can be used in electives if you want to be safe. Or you can just plan for an extra Sophia class or something and not take the LPT/RPT unless you absolutey have to.

* There are 4 SDC courses, Business 303, Business 304, Business 310, Business 312. Can I only do 2 of these per month?

By default, yes. You can pay an extra $70 for each additional exam you want to take, up to 5 total exams per month. However, these are UL classes with assignments. You probably will not be able to complete more than 2 classes in a month. If you somehow manage to finish each class in under a week, you can go ahead and get started on the quizzes/assignments for the other two. It's only the exams that cost money. If you finish every quiz and assignment for all classes in under a month, you can go ahead and pay for 2 additional exams and save a little money that way.

* I have InstaCert "Managerial Accounting" in my degree plan, but from what I understand it's credits are defunct now?

Correct, they no longer offer credit-bearing classes/exams. Where is this listed on the wiki? I keep thinking I got all references to it, but InstantCert course recommendations keep popping up.

* The AICE evaluators promised to possibly finish the evaluation this friday, which would be tomorrow.

If you do get it tomorrow, definitely let us know!
