I mentioned in many posts, you can do a minor at UMPI for the BLS, but that minor doesn't have enough Upper Level requirements, thus - adding a second minor and/or getting the 3-4 classes for the MAOL will work. In other words, you need the BLS Management & Psych to get the degree completed unless you're looking at random upper level credits (MAOL or something different).
Thanks for clarifying, I understand that it's not needed for the MS program to match the BA degree subject.
I do want to look into a 2nd minor option at UMPI. So a BLS Management w/ Psych would be ideal. Sorry for dumb question how do the double minor and total credits work? 120 is the total, but if you do double minor does it go over like 134? (random number)
I saw other posts about getting enrolled into UL 3-4 classes for the MAOL when taking BLS..that is also a good option for me to consider.
You would take as many classes as needed to accomplish the minor. So yes, you would go over 120 and get some number like 134 (if thats how many it puts you over). They offer courses for the online psychology program, so doing the "Management w/ Psych" option is possible.
I see in the addendum that you're from NJ (greetings)! May I suggest possibly looking at TESU and using the "NJ College Promise" to pay for your college degree:
https://www.hesaa.org/Pages/NJCollegePromise.aspx
"New Jersey residents who attend a New Jersey four-year public institution of higher education and have an annual AGI between $0 and $65,000 will attend tuition-free during their third (60-89 credits) and fourth (90-128 credits) years of study, because the Garden State Guarantee provides a net price of $0 for tuition and fees during those years. Students in their third and fourth years at one of New Jersey’s four year public colleges or universities with AGIs between $65,001 and $80,000 will pay a discounted net price of no more than $7,500 for tuition and fees per year and those with AGIs between $80,001 and $100,000 will pay a discounted net price of no more than $10,000 for tuition and fees".
I would pay the cost of $99 for Sophia, do as many courses as you can to cover GEC req., and apply at TESU for the BA in Psychology:

Then, I would apply at UMPI for the MAOL. Or you could just do UMPI all the way through. Either choice isn't a bad option. Best of luck out there!
