Which Liberal Studies degree? UMPI? Are the remaining 30 credits the residency credits? Good luck, carry on with getting those credits...
I’ve applied to TESU already but just found out about UMPI last night so now I’m rethinking my plan. I used to have almost enough credits to graduate with a BLS from TESU but that was 13 years ago and I was using something like 27 FEMA credits that are no longer accepted at TESU. So basically I just have around 30 credits in free electives left to complete. I would really like to avoid the TESU mandatory capstone and other courses that they now require. UMPI seems like a great alternative for my needs, especially since it looks like the YourPace courses award a letter grade and I could really use a boost in my GPA (2.75) before I start applying to law schools. I have dozens of CLEP/DANTES/ACE/ALEKS credits already transferred into TESU. I should probably just use the template for new member introductions. I need my credit evaluation from TESU first though, and it won’t be available until after the holidays.

As far as the LSAT goes, I took it once in 2009 at the height of my InstaCert/DegreeForum manic phase of knocking out 100+ credits in less than a year. I didn’t study at all and scored a 148 out of 180, 36th percentile. I’m not looking to get into any prestigious schools though, just an American Bar Association-accredited 3-year ONLINE JD program. Southwestern University School of Law is at the top of my list.
