Hello
I recently applied and received the transcript back. I have taken four Sophia classes and rest of my credits were from the community college. I have a business administration A.S. UMPI accepted all my credits (96 credits). I am interested in BBA PM & IS. I plan on starting this fall.
Following are classes I need to take.
2D
5E
COM210
I plan on completing above three through Sophia before semester starts.
Business Administration
BUS200
BUS244
BUS325
BUS440
BUS469
Concentration
BUS141
BUS240
BUS343
BUS345
BUS400
BUS415
Choose two business electives
BUS245
BUS359
BUS401
After Sophia, I have 13 classes left. Will I be able to finish it in two terms? I am a stay at home mom. I can study while kids are at school and at night. I am not sure if I should plan it out for longer? Thank you in advance.

Well I finally did it. I had been planning and working on my Pierpont, TESU, UMPI, Sophia, SDC, etc. plan since October 2022.
I finally finished the UMPI portion.
I did this last term, Summer 1, 2024.
After fighting and attempting to transfer in as much as possible to get the total class count needed to a minimum so that I could pick whatever else I wanted to reach the 10, I finally signed up. (Yes, I know you have to take a minimum of 10 classes. I'm so tired of every time someone responds with, "You have to take 10 minimum"... I know that).
I signed up for the BABA in Management and Leadership.
I completed 50 courses on Sophia, 12 on SDC, CSM Learn, and 1 on Straighterline.
I only needed 6 required classes to finish with UMPI, and 4 of anything else.
The classes were much, much, much easier than I had anticipated. Obviously some being longer than others (BUS 325, & BUS 489).
I ended up adding on a History Minor, and a Project Management Certificate.
I completed 20 classes in the term, while also being enrolled in 2 classes at TESU.
I started taking classes that I didn't need at all just because they sounded interesting, like Federal Taxation 1.
Grades are being posted now, But from what I can see, I got all A's, except one A Minus.
If I could give myself advice 2 years ago, it would be to skip SDC completely, and go straight to UMPI after Sophia.

'Duped': Students of UA's new online college can't get jobs, say school misled them o |

Interesting article.
https://archive.is/Ixfje#selection-411.0-411.103
Some highlights:
"Heather Harris, a first-generation college student from southern Kentucky, completed a master's in psychology in January 2022 with a goal of helping families affected by addiction. But she soon discovered she couldn’t get a job in counseling without experience in the field or a state license — requirements she said school officials never discussed with her.
Harris returned to her previous job: a line worker at a sewing factory, making $9.50 an hour. She’ll soon have to start repaying $90,000 in student loans."
"According to Frazier, a UAGC enrollment specialist assured her that her military benefits would fully cover the cost of the advanced degree she sought — a Ph.D. in criminology — for 14 months.
“I asked her if I was going to be accumulating student loans. And she said ‘no,’ unless for whatever reason your GI Bill payment doesn’t go through,” Frazier said.
Her military benefits successfully went through, according to time logs reviewed by The Republic.
But three months later, Frazier noticed a change in her credit score. When she logged in to her federal student aid account, she was shocked to find a loan for over $8,000 taken out in her name and paid directly to UAGC without her knowledge.
“I saw that, and I was like, excuse my language, but 'What the f---?’” Frazier said."
"Multiple UAGC students interviewed by The Republic described feeling confused and misled by the repeated insinuation — reinforced by branded water bottles, T-shirts and other paraphernalia with UA’s logo — that they were equal University of Arizona students when they are denied the same academic opportunities.
"I just wish they would honor what they say they are,” said Jackson, who said the name change added “another layer of confusion.”
“It made us think maybe they would be different than Ashford, but it was the same thing,” he said.
After trying for months to land a job in his field of study without success, Jackson took a job driving a Frito-Lay truck. In addition to supporting his family, he had to begin paying off his student loans."

Advisor Assigned & Minor Questions |

Hi Everyone,
I got my advisor assigned for my September 3 start and she's switching my program to BAS now (even before my august 2nd AAS conferral). I guess that's a nice time saver. Also, I asked what the minor options were under the BAS program and she gave me the following: Accounting, Criminal Just, Educ Studies, History, Mgmt, MIS, Poli Sci, Project Management, and Psych. In this link, there are a bunch more options for minors so I'm wondering if I'm only limited to these ones she gave me or if I could actually get any those minors. I'm considering the Mgmt minot, but I was also considering a Bussiness Admin minor so maybe I can double minor? I transferred a lot of Business ACE credits so I wonder if I can.
I sent her these questions and haven't heard back yet, but wanted to see what you all thought. By the way, since she reached out, she's been great. She gets back to me right away, even on weekends.
Thx!
