Hi all. I am interested in this math program… I noticed that in its plan, there are 15 credits math electives (UL). 
I would like to know weather it can be replaced by UL  math course from other organizations… because they only indicate 5 courses and no other explanation… and I find in its wiki plan, it said that they can be any UL math courses, is it true?
Le me suppose it’s true… I plan to transfer some UL math credits… here is another problem…I have several degrees from foreign countries… and what would happen if the course credits is less than 3… 
For example, there is a Time series analysis in my previous transcript, and  only  2 credits. In this case, will they accept it as a transfer? (If it is evaluated as UL by Wes or others )  
I think it’s a common case when you want to transfer foreign credits…I want to know how it works in TESU, if any of you have experience.
Thanks for your help.

i been doing XAMK University (35 ECTS) course on Introduction to Video Games Creation IVGC -50% done

Your Location: Texas, USA
Your Age: 44
What kind of degree do you want?: any, I just wont to get it done
Current Regional Accredited Credits: University of Houston - 12 / WGU - 71 / Sophia - 21
Any certifications or military experience? Lots of IT certs - CCNA/CCNP/MCSE Lost of CompTIA 
Budget: I'd like to go the cheapest route possible. This will all be cash out of pocket
Commitments: Spouse / Kids / Pets / Farm work /Full Time work and Personal Company.
Dedicated time to study: I can study early in the mornings(2-4 hours if needed) and I have time at work to get things done (usually a good 2 hours per day can be set aside. Sat days are usually packed with nights free but I can do all day Sunday
Timeline: Fast as possible would be ideal but I am willing to extend the timeframe if needed.  Overall I would like to be done within 12 months.
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: none

So I am just looking to get things done. Yes I have 71 credits at WGU but I don't thing they really translate into anything. Right now I am torn between TAMUC - General Studies or UMPI - BA PM and IS Unless someone knows of anything that fits better. At this point in my career I have a very solid background in IT, and while an IT degree would be nice I no longer see it as a "must have". Life happened, and I was never able to finish the WGU stuff.. 

I am still waiting on the U of H transcript but it is just college algebra, English, history stuff.. year 1 type classes. 

WGU is:

It's interesting that 2U's stock market valuation is only 11 million now.

Since minoring at UMPI seems to be becoming more popular, I thought I would create a wiki guide for UMPI minors.

https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/UMPI_!Minors

Let me know if there are any mistakes or other minors that can be completed.

Your Location: US, Oregon 
Your Age: 54
What kind of degree?: Bachelors
Credits / Other: None.
Sophia Learning Credits: 49.
Any certifications or military experience?
Lean Six Sigma Blackbelt 
Budget: No budget constraints, but wasting money isn't fun, so there's that.
Commitments: I run a special needs foster home. 
Dedicated time to study:  I can spent 5 hours per day / 6 days week on schooling. 
Timeline: asap
Goal?: UMPI. BABA Leadership with MIS and Project Mgt Minor.

Not so quick question. Im not sure if this is the right area or if I should post this under UMPI area.

High level:

I have 30 years of MGT experience, including owning four businesses and managing executive teams. I am overqualified for many positions but severely under-credentialed because I never needed a degree in the past. 

I need a degree for my immediate goal, but now that I'm in it, I am thinking about maximizing my flexibility for the remainder of my productive years. 

SOPHIA: After I complete Spanish I and Biology/Biology lab, my GEC will be covered. I also took some electives while waiting for grades to fill time and maximize the value of Sophia. I will take Sophia's 200 and 300 division classes that are accepted @ UMPI before going to STD or just starting at UMPI (Oct start date). 

I plan to get a BABA in management and leadership, but now I am thinking about minors, Specifically PM and MIS. A third area of interest is psychology.

Is there any way to know what classes will be required to get those minors? Do I take those instead of free electives, or ?

I appreciate any advice, and I appreciate this forum. There is lots of good information here that has helped me plan this out.

I just received a Pierpont associate's degree with area of emphasis Information Systems. And now I'm looking to move on to a UMPI bachelor's degree and finish that in the easiest and quickest way possible. And would greatly appreciate some help planning what courses to do and where.

According to this you need to do 30 credits at UMPI or 10 courses: https://www.umpi.edu/files/academics/pro...ce_BAS.pdf

And I think you need to do a minor at UMPI.

Maybe the minor you can do as YouPace courses mentioned here: https://www.umpi.edu/yourpace/academic_p...r/#courses. Can you do minor or some of the courses for the minor from outside like at Coursera or something, it doesn't seem like it but I want to make sure if there's any easier way?

For the 10 courses I need to do at UMPI do I just do this: https://www.umpi.edu/yourpace/academic_p...r/#courses. And what other courses do you all suggest doing at UMPI that would be the easiest? Can I do these courses online? Can I do these courses as YourPace courses or do I need to do regular courses online at UMPI (but YourPace courses seem to be only for minors and not as electives)? If I need to do regular courses at UMPI online, how long do these take, or do they take a semester or is there any way to complete the courses faster, and are they graded by a human/person?

Also one thing I'm a little confused about is the courses on this page that it says you can bring in from outside amount to 112 credits with the Information Systems area of emphasis, leaving only 8 credits to do at UMPI: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Pi...egree_Plan. But don't you need to do 30 credits or 10 courses at UMPI?

Thank you.

Goal?: I'm looking for a bachelor's program in any field just to "check the box," aiming for something quick and easy to complete. By easy, I mean it should have minimal capstone or writing requirements, be open-book, and have the fewest proctored exams possible.




Edit I've heard about UMPI's BLS program with one minor. Which minor would have the easiest, lowest capstone requirements, be open book, or have the fewest proctored exams possible if I'm just looking to check the box?

Since I went on a posting rant tonight asking for help, I thought I'd offer something of interest.  

I recently completed an ISSA certification in nutrition that was fairly easy to do and might be beneficial to the right person.    It was 100% online and self-paced.  Non-proctored test.   The book was online but a paper copy was available to order for an additional fee if that's your preference.   

There was a lot of biology and a lot of business since being a nutritionist is a business.   For those who've recently studied both topics, you'll find it a walk in the park with minimal study.   I completed the course in less than a week, though if you need to study those topics it could potentially take a lot longer.   

I took the course solely out of personal interest, though ISSA offers resources and job assistance for those who are interested in making nutrition a career.  They also offer an additional online personal training course for those who really want to get into the fitness industry.    I can't recall the exact fee, but it was in the hundreds not thousands.     I have no idea how easy or difficult it is to find a job with the cert as I did this solely for personal satisfaction, but I just thought I'd mention it since this forum mentions study resources and also certifications that help people who are interested in different topics.  

Since I've asked for help here on other topics, I thought I'd offer myself up as a resource for anyone who has ever considered ISSA certification.  There is one more prestigious certification out there and of course there are actual nutrition degrees for those more serious in working in clinical settings.  But for those who want to just find a book of business and offer nutritional advice to  (probably) weight loss or fitness clients, an ISSA cert is sufficient from what I have seen so far - someone please correct me if I'm wrong.   This isn't the type of cert that will get you the job at a hospital or working with patients.  If you're the type that already works at a gym or as a personal trainer, it would seem to be the type of cert that could be helpful.       I found the program fascinating and since the exams weren't proctored, they were totally stress-free.   They included a ton of multiple choice questions and some fairly tough essay questions in the final exam, but I scored highly without any problems.

Happy to answer any questions anyone has about the ISSA certification and hope that someone finds this helpful.  Admins please delete if this info doesn't apply to the forum or feel free to move to a different section.
