The exception would be for upper level business courses that are considered prerequisites for the program. Since you have to take 30 credits at UMPI anyway, it would make sense to take those courses there, in which case I would expect no problems.

I appreciate your response and thanks but I'm specifically looking for EU universities' acceptance towards those credits I know Us will not be a problem .

Germany uses the Anabin database. If the University is H+ in Anabin you are fine. UMPI is. If it is H+/-, like TESU, the transcript will be more scrutinized including the sources of credit. For Germany, UMPI is fine as a place to get a degree. You can open Anabin and confirm this for yourself.

Some other things to consider.

First, check the requirements of the master's programs you are targeting. Since you mentioned Germany I use them as an example. Similar rules hold in e.g. the Netherlands and Austria.

In Germany, it is really common, in addition to having a degree, to see requirements like "at least 60 ECTS in XYZ subject, 30 ECTS in UVW subject, 10 ECTS in Stats", so on and so forth. Generally, German universities use the conversion 2 ECTS to 1 US credit.

Germans do 2 years of Gen Eds before starting a 3 year bachelor. The bachelor has no gen eds and only limited electives that are unrelated to your degree subject. Maybe one or two language courses.

With American degrees the Gen Eds are packaged up inside, and they are half composed of Gen Eds and electives. 

This means American degrees sometimes fall short of these rules about having certain number of credits in subjects relevant to the master's. It does not mean that American's cannot apply, it does mean they may need to take extra classes somewhere first.

With UMPI it is great to know this in advance, since you can add extra classes without paying extra tuition if you are inside a flat rate term. Or add additional relevant minors, etc. So make sure you know this in advance.

Second, MBA is not something you get scholarship for normally... at least not in Europe. It is a professional qualification, not an academic one. Usually the firm pays for it and it is very expensive. You may get a scholarship for the academic theoretical Masters in Management, Masters in Business etc. These are part of the normal academic offering.
