I think the take away from the responses is that the key to accelerating a possible computer science program at UMPI is not trying to anticipate course to course matches, but instead making sure you have all the Gen eds and distribution requirements covered, and then learning how to do most of the things they will expect you to know how to do to excel in the major, whether that comes in the form of transferable credit or not. I mean, if you know how to program in Python before you take UMPI's course in programming in Python (for example only; nobody get hung up on Python here please), the UMPI course will go a lot quicker.
