My question would be what is the deadline to sign up for commencement? It is huge for me to be able to walk at the physical UMPI campus. If I don’t finish my final class until midway into Spring II, would that be too late to walk on May 5th?
You should have no problem at all being able to walk. I forget (but I am going to look for you), but if I remember correctly, you have to be within range of graduating by the following semester (Summer 1). I got bored one day and started reading all of their policies and I remember stumbling upon this. As for the campus itself, I have been there for graduation this year. I thought it was beautiful and the buildings themselves are really nice both inside and out. There isn't really much to do in the nearby area. There are a couple of good restaurants in the area. I suggest The Maple Pig; they have some great food there I thought. While you are there, make sure to check out the school store. Its in the cafeteria area and it is super tiny, but they have some really cool stuff there too (I bought the UMPI tie and the frame from there, plus the UMPI Nike hoodie). There is a Best Western right next to UMPI that a lot of YourPace students stayed at. Also, they will have an event an hour before commencement for all YourPace students to meet up at in Preble Hall if memory serves me right. You will have a lot fun that day, and rightfully so. I drove 11 hours to get there from Jersey. I enjoyed myself, but I wish I had planned better due to the limited amount of things you can do there. I did however walk the trail behind UMPI by the train tracks and my girlfriend and I encountered some kids playing guitar in their backyard. We got invited over by their mom to watch them play in lawn chairs and we were offered some beer. Single-handedly, best vacation of my life. I found out about UMPI from independent research on more CBE schools after I left WGU. Though, I owe it to this community for more information and the opportunity to have attended such an event.
