So it means that I can transfer all the RA/ACE etc. credits into UMPI if I want to, even if those credits are not related to my future degree.
But once I enroll in UMPI, UMPI will only allow those credits related to my degree to be transferred.
The advantage of the above UMPI transfer policy is that I can use UMPI transcript as a container which I can put all my credits into it. It might be useful for my future graduate application.
You can transfer credits to UMPI while you're an enrolled student. They will still accept courses that aren't required for your degree program to be transferred in. You can transfer 2000 credits to UMPI. The most that will be applied to your degree is 90 credits. Everyone must complete a minimum of 30 credits at UMPI and meet residency requirements which vary by degree. Some students transfer in far more than 90 credits and still don't have 90 credits applied to their degree program because those credits don't apply to the what is needed to complete the degree. When it comes to graduate applications, they still want official transcripts to show where your courses came from. If you utilize financial aid, the transcripts are required as well.
