  New Coursera ACE Recommendations
Posted by: spohara - 01-02-2025, 11:14 AM - Forum: Saylor.org, Straighterline, Study.com, Sophia.Org, Coursera Discussion - Replies (5)

It looks like a fair amount of new or revamped courses.  As a TESU BACS graduate who did a speed run to the finish line, I've going back and doing the IBM DevOps to fill in some gaps (TDD, CI/CD, Microservices, Containerized deployments, etc) that I need for work.  Looks like DevOps and Full Stack new upper level recommendations, plus there are other certs worth checking out so you can graduate with the skills you want (or just be like me and go back and fill in the gaps as you need - it is impossible to learn everything, but I feel like everyone is trying to do DevOps in the work world)

  Most affordable online schools?
Posted by: tuahbao - 01-02-2025, 12:27 AM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (10)

Hi there,
Greetings
I am a working adult with a tight budget, but would like to continue to pursue study. May I know if you can share your experience with me about which online schools are the most affordable?
1. Field - MBA/DBA or IT related (AI, Big data, Data Science)
2. Online school (either live sessions or pre-recorded videos)
3. Medium is in English language.
4. Okay to have private/own degree (or unaccredited degree, as long as the quality of the education is good and the educational institution can legally grant its degree to the students in its local country/state)

I got to know a lot about ENEB from this forum, however any other institutes besides ENEB?
Thanks for your advice in advance.

  Transferring Courses & Evaluation Questions
Posted by: Armadillo1 - 12-31-2024, 11:34 AM - Forum: UMPI - University of Maine at Presque Isle Discussion - Replies (7)

While I still haven't officially decided on UMPI, I applied and was approved and submitted all my transcripts prior to completing all the known transferrable courses, not realizing I should have waited. How difficult would it be to still take those course at Sophia/SDC to transfer them in.

I know I still need the following:

Spanish I - Sophia
Human Bio Lab - Sophia
Environmental Science - Sophia
Intro to Ethics/Ancient Greek Philosophers - Sophia

potentially a few other transferrable courses for picking up a minor for the fun of it.

I also have a handful of courses that have already been completed, but not on the transcripts that I sent; Straigherline, SDC and a few random ACE courses from other providers where it's taking forever to get added to my credly account.

  Inquiry - Excelsior Classes, Transfer Credit
Posted by: Zacharysa - 12-30-2024, 10:23 PM - Forum: EU - Excelsior University Discussion - Replies (11)

Good evening,
Can someone share a snapshot of their transcript showing acceptance of 113 credits, or if you’ve already completed your program, could I see your final transcript? I’m trying to enroll with the maximum credits possible.

  BA Psych and BA minor?
Posted by: Educated Wombat - 12-30-2024, 08:25 PM - Forum: UMPI - University of Maine at Presque Isle Discussion - Replies (3)

New thread for my own UMPI journey! 

I am planning to pursue a BA in Psychology and possibly a minor in business administration. Before I post my degree plan for feedback and suggestions, I am a bit confused on how the credits transfer for a minor. For example if I plan to transfer 90 credits for the BA psych major, I can still transfer in credits for the minor but they cannot be the same credits I would use towards my major, correct? 
I hope to enroll at UMPI in May after I finally complete my associates degree  Big Grin

  Degree Plan Advice - BA in Psych UMPI Yourpace
Posted by: leelee031989 - 12-29-2024, 08:26 PM - Forum: Degree Planning Advice - Replies (2)

Hi everyone. I have attached my full plan for my BA in Psych at UMPI via YourPace.

Thank you in advance for any help. Here is some info about me.

Your Location: NC
Your Age: 35
Current Regional Accredited Credits: 49 (local CC - RCC & SNHU). The RCC credits are probably 10 years old but will be used for electives and one Gen Ed, I'm assuming they will be accepted. They were accepted at SNHU but that was also in 2017 so the RCC credits were not as old at the time. 
Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: None but signing up for Sophia today, starting courses tomorrow.
Any certifications or military experience?: Nothing relevant
Commitments: Remote job, but workload is currently very light
Dedicated time to study: at least 40 hours per week (also work fast, no real struggles with academics)

I will complete 40 credits at Sophia/study.com & 33 at UMPI (12 classes, one is an orientation for Gen Ed, so really 11).

My questions:
1. Is 11 courses at UMPI realistic to complete in one 8 week term? If not, two?
2. Is it typical that all of my RCC & SNHU credits that aren't used for Gen Ed & Psych, would be eligible to be used as elective credits as I have them allocated in my spreadsheet?
3. Should I wait until I finish all of my Sophia/study.com course to apply for UMPI? I plan to take 2 weeks at the max to do the 14 Sophia/Study course so that if I need to wait to apply to UMPI until after I finish them, I can apply by 1/15/24 for the March 10th start date (this will have me applying 2 weeks before the deadline). This is an area of concern because I have read that it takes a while to get everything done as the staff at UMPI are still adjusting to the influx of YourPace students. 
4. General advice/feedback on my plan please. Any major holes or issues I am not seeing? I did sub in some of the psych classes that may be a bit more difficult/time consuming bc my plan is to immediately start a Masters in CMHC or Clinical Psych program once I get my BA, so my thinking is that it is beneficial to take some of the more advanced classes. Any thoughts on that? If it won't make much difference, I will opt in for the easier course load.

A note - I don't have my RCC transcript yet. IT is requested but it's a small school in a rural area. I went by the transferred credit list from my SNHU transcript, assuming that the ones SNHU transferred in, UMPI would also.

I appreciate anyone that is willing to take a look and help me out, thank you!
