THE CATS OUT OF THE BAG - UMASS GLOBAL ( RANT)

[bjcheung77]

Has anyone completed this program?

More info please, which program are you referring to? UMASS Global MAOL or the WGU MHL?

I was referring to UMGC, not UMASS Global. The names are similar. Overall, UMASS is hard to hack. 

The traditional format is each course has deadlines, unlike CBE.

You can transfer 90 credits to UMGC, which is possible for degrees such as computer science or business. The majors often only have 33 credits, and the free electives are over 40 credits. 

There is also a 25% discount on tuition through onlinedegree.com

Interesting, I would say UMGC and UMASS are pretty much similar in hackability for those who know their system well enough. Both do allow up to 75% transfer into each of their degrees. UMASS Global was Brandman, their main difference with UMPI and is that the ACE requirements are 81.5% on ACE credits vs COSC at 80% or the regular 70% for UMPI and other providers. UMASS Global MAOL was exactly the same as the UMPI MAOL until UMPI changed systems from Strut to Brightspace.

Here's a thread from last year in regards to UMGC, the main two degrees I recommend are similar to the TESU ones I recommend, Bachelors General Studies and the Bachelors Applied Technology as the requirements differ and are much more flexible in these two degrees vs their other counterparts. The poster didn't answer my query to confirm, but it's in the details of my post. Link: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Resistance
