I'm contemplating going Internet only.
I think my ISP is charging me way too much for my bundle. I'm paying for Internet, phone, and TV. I don't use the phone, and I think my TV usage will be satisfied by streaming.
Please share any recommendations regarding Google Chromecast, or other streaming devices

currently I utilize the Internet for general surfing and professional Zoom via my Desktop and android phones (via Wi Fi)

Hello Everyone, 
I am in need of ACE (3 Credits) for Spanish to transfer to UMPI. I signed up for Sophia and i tried the a milestone writing and failed miserably, I did the milestone 2.1 writing and failed as well. My current score is 76% with still 3 oral and 1 writing toushstones pending. Teacher stated that i used some outside help and never used the vocabulary that she mentioned. SHe is right, i didn't use google translator but other language translator.
Any help and suggestion is appreciated. I must transfer these credits to UMPI by June 15 or i will get considered fail since their Spanish course is way tougher that Sophia. 
Any suggestion or help, 
Thanks

I'm just curious and can't seem to find a simple answer. Does UMPI let you complete a degree and then enroll again for a 2nd separate degree, or is that not allowed?

I am really quite impressed by the amount of courses being offered. There's very few English language courses which is why I believe it isn't being talked about a lot here.
But for example, they offer online language courses in languages that are usually insanely hard to find online such as Basque or Galician.
There's a very, very long list of título oficial masters online for only 180 euros worth a variable amount of credits on various subjects including history, Spanish law, psychology, and even a Chemisty course that looks awesome.
I don't see a lot of literature offering outside of a female poets course in their open university masters section, but there will be some interesting anthropology courses next year. Also have Roman military history courses.
Right now they have class signups for the summer session, everything on zoom and worth 1 credit each. There's quite a few history and literature courses for variable fees. I even spotted one for only 10 euros. A scant few are even free!
There are also a few advanced Spanish grammar courses. So, for people needing an online Spanish bachelors from TESU, this univesity might offer the credits that are so difficult to obtain elsewhere.
Here is the website in case anyone is interested.

I have come to the point where I need to decide where to go to complete my bachelors. I was at the local community college, and ready to transfer to a university here in KS (FHSU), but I really want to accelerate my path. I have started the application process at WGU, with a current start date of September, and wasn't thrilled with my transfer eval (18 units awarded) and while researching some Sophia classes, came across UMPI and now I just don't know what route to take. I am wondering if it seems reasonable to crank out some Sophia credits (maybe Study.com, too), start UMPI in September, and finish within a year (or less, I'd be totally fine with that!). I'm struggling to figure out which classes will transfer for what, besides the obvious ones, in order to determine what to take through Sophia.

Your Location: currently in Kansas, but a FL resident (military spouse)
Your Age: 35
What kind of degree do you want?: I was planning to do Sociology at FHSU, swapped to Middle Grade Mathematics Teaching at WGU, and now am considering Psychology at UMPI. My ultimate goal is to get my Master's in School Counseling, which doesn't require any specific bachelor's degree, hence the range of different paths.
Budget: As low as possible. I haven't paid anything out of pocket yet thanks to FA and a small scholarship, and would like to maintain a similar trend in order to afford the Masters program.
Commitments: I am a stay-at-home mom but my kids are all school-aged. So just that, my spouse and pets.
Dedicated Time to Study: I typically commit to schoolwork from 9-2 M-F but can find an extra hour or two here or there throughout the week. (25+ hours a week).
Timeline: ASAP, one year if possible.
TA/Employer Reimbursement: None, though I qualify for FA.

I was under the impression that the GERs were waived. But their evaluation of my first bachelors and all the additional classes I've taken came back with needing all my English classes and biology. I was super English heavy with my first degree so that's just weird. I was thinking about going for a 2nd RA psych bachelors after finishing my Masters in Nonprofit Management just because I've always wanted to learn more psychology, but I am not feeling English 101 again. Maybe my one RA and my one unaccredited  bachelors are enough undergrad learning...

This remix is FIRE as well

Lyrics:

Once I get a couple shots. I just don't know how to stop. Then I start acting like I'm Morgan on the rooftop.

Broadway ain't the place the go. Mixing Jack up with the Coke. Then everything my mama told me is out of the window.

I hate seeing any legitimate institution suffer for any reason.

I wonder:
1. Does every tertiary institution of learning have to call itself a university?
2. What is the right amount of programs of study?
3. At what point does the tertiary education market place become oversaturated? The Commonwealth of Virginia and the greater Lynchburg area itself are a case in point.
4. Will the number of distance learning only tertiary institutions displace the number of traditional bricks and mortar ones. 

I'm praying for and wishing the best for everyone involved with the University of Lynchburg.

Hello DegreeForum! I want to thank everyone here for your love and support you give the community. I was here about 18 months ago seeking advice for my daughter and it made a world of difference. Thus now at the next stage in her journey, I am back to explore options.

She has completed with honors 2x B.Sci degrees.

• University of Cincinnati (RA)
  Bachelor of Science in Information Technology - Software App Development
  

• University of the People (NA)
  Bachelor of Science in Computer Science
  
  

I have 190 credits, I already have my BOG and am going theUMPI route.

 I’ve been in contact with all of my local community colleges, and they offer PLA prior learning assessments.
I started my academic journey at a private art school 15 years ago so I have my freshman, credits, out-of-the-way.
Despite having so many credits if I ever want to finish it up, I’m still a freshman at an art school. And all the methods to get cheap credit don’t really offer art credits (saylor, study, Sophia)

If it’s helpful for you to get an idea here is my design résumé 
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1no-BdhORTq8Z4IUiVF8hhIerqDxA7ozZHN8Ri-QeY84

so I’ve contacted all the community colleges and I can do a portfolio review, but I would have to do a residency and I have so many credits that it doesn’t exactly make sense. Again this is at  the associates level. 

Knowing all that what advice do you have.
I would like to knock out some color theory typography ace or NCCRS credits if you know of any, or if I could go through portfolio reviews, tell him give me to the senior level somewhere.
