I've been searching the forum and haven't found an answer to this question, but I apologize if I overlooked and this question is redudant.
Does this advice still apply as of November 2023? I know that UMPI is very backed up and I'd like to get applied for the January term if possible. Should I go ahead and apply and send in my transcripts to see where I am credits-wise? Considering the BABA Management / Leadership - https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/UM...egree_Plan
Background:
I was originally planning on going to WGU - in fact I'm applied and already sent in my transcripts and all that. But the more I read about the proctor issues the less I'm liking it. I came across UMPI on youtube and eventually found this forum. I'm not sure exactly how many credits I can transfer in from my college days, but WGU only gave me 23 towards their program. I've also been racking up Sophia credits, but so far only those specifically related to my program at WGU. Got another 24 from Sophia I can transfer.
Thanks for any advice!
It still applies, yes. But if you already have a substantial amount of credits (sounds like you've got at least 50), it should be fine. The problem comes with students who have completed maybe 4 Sophia classes and who are pressured into enrolling by the "enrollment specialists". For students who still have a lot of SDC/Sophia credits to transfer in, applying and starting before they're actually ready will actually slow them down - not speed them up.
