IT degree with A levels & 7 years of work experience

The vast majority of these would probably be non-transferable, mostly due to being unrelated to business or IT.

I suspect you're right about S being "high school" and L being LL, U being UL. That does seem to match up with the credits they have listed for each credential.

The credits will all work as electives, at the very least, so they won't be entirely wasted. But electives are limited. Any additional credits that are neither electives nor meet degree requirements will still show up on your final UMPI transcript but will not count toward your transfer limit. Example: if you had 100 credits in Ballet plus 9 credits that meet GEC requirements, UMPI would count that as approximately 27 credits in transfer (~18 electives + 9 GEC) but the transcript would show the full 109 credits transferred. I hope this makes sense!

I'm not seeing anything that says it's a lab science, so you'll still need that from Sophia. I've lost track of whether or not you've completed Human Biology + Lab yet, but that's what you need. Organic Chem is a physical science, as are the other sciences on your evaluation, so you don't need to do Intro to Chemistry @ Sophia.

You apply, then transfer what you have immediately. Then you become enrolled. I would recommend ensuring that you have at least met GEC requirements first. You can transfer in credits after you're enrolled, but it requires permission to do so. It also takes time away from your studies, and that can ultimately lead to slowing down and wasting money at Sophia/SDC/UMPI.
