UoPeople Bachelor Degree Requirements - Gen Ed, Electives, Major |

University of The People recently obtained RA and they've kept their tuition free model, the fees seem to be the same and haven't changed since then. Prospective students are enrolling and wondering about the alternative providers to use in order to complete their degree within cost, time, and to max their credit transfers...
An example is using Study.com to max those alternative credits for transfer, if you completed 6 courses in one month using the $95 plan, that’s just about $15 per course. Way below the cost of most providers, and you’re earning real, transferable college credit. Study.com just rolled out a major update: No more unnecessary quizzes, no proctoring, no busywork, 100% online and self-paced, and new pricing models.
College Starter – $95/month: Unlimited courses (in a month), enroll in 2 at time (lower division)
College Saver – $235/month: Access to all upper + lower division, enroll in 3 courses at a time, with no limit on how many you can take in a month
Here’s the link I’ve been using to explore more: https://bit.ly/3RTJ3I9
What do you think of the changes? It seems like Study.com is making things cheaper, easier, faster for students...
UoPeople: https://www.uopeople.edu/about/partners/...study-com/
Transfer up to 30 courses (90 credits) toward a UoPeople bachelor’s degree program
Enjoy a transfer course fee waiver for up to 20 courses to UoPeople
Study with a unique, 100% online model that offers unmatched flexibility

UMPI degrees are somewhat flexible and there are several majors and/or minors that interest prospective students, most students I see are having a hard time deciding where to obtain transferable credit. There is information on the WIKI for degree plans, but with the recent changes at Study.com, you may want to investigate using them as an alternative credit provider to max your transfer credits before you start your UMPI degree.
As always, create a spreadsheet of the requirements, use it for reference and tracking purposes and also max your transfer with alternative credit. Study.com just rolled out a major update: No more unnecessary quizzes, no proctoring, no busywork, 100% online and self-paced, and new pricing models.

WGU is a great exclusively online institution that has several states endorsing them. For individuals looking at WGU degrees, they have particular requirements, and I usually recommend trying to max your transfer credits before enrolling at the institution. As always recommended, review their partners.wgu.edu for alternative credit providers and create a spreadsheet of requirements for reference and tracking purposes...

For $95/month you can complete as many lower-division courses as you can manage, 2 at a time. If you hustle, the cost-per-course drops fast. They even removed proctoring requirements which are huge for flexibility. Upper division access is available too if you want to knock out tougher credits.

Let me know what you think of the changes — these seems like it's what I am looking for from Study.com

COSC has made various changes to their degree requirements and the alternative credit providers that they will accept. Some members may find it harder than before to complete a degree due to these requirements. I would recommend creating a spreadsheet and planning carefully yet resourcefully to get to your degree goal and finish.
Study.com is an approved provider within their directory, I suggest investigating that route for max transfer of alternative credits, especially when they provide upper level credits that may go towards your degree requirements, or if you want to knock out tougher credits cheaper, easier, faster than a traditional college...

Affordable upper level courses that can't be found using alternative credit may be available using Study.com as they have a wide variety of upper level classes that may fit in your degree requirements and/or within the major. I highly recommend investigating this avenue further.

A big plus for me is that upper level courses are available if you need to get the requirements for the major or to knock out the tougher credits cheaper, easier, and faster than a traditional college course.

Delay in WES Evaluation – Structuralia Not Sending Documents? |

Hi everyone,
I’m reaching out to see if anyone else has had trouble getting their documents from Structuralia sent to WES for evaluation. I completed my Master’s with them, and it's been almost three months since I requested the transcript to be sent, but WES still hasn't received anything.I've followed up several times and asked for a tracking number, but I haven’t received it. It’s been difficult to reach the right person for a proper update.Has anyone here experienced something similar? Were you eventually able to get your WES evaluation done successfully? Any advice would be appreciated.Thank you!

Help needed for degree planning |

This is a really great forum. I've been lurking here for a few weeks and have learned a lot of knowledge. Now I've decided to register because I have an idea and I'm not sure if it's feasible, so I'd like to ask for everyone's help.
I'm an international student currently in my junior year of an undergraduate English major. I want to apply for a Bachelor of Arts in English at either the University of Maine at Presque Isle (UMPI) or Thomas Edison State University (TESU). However, I only got a score of 5.5 in IELTS and 95 in Duolingo, which fails to meet the minimum language score requirements for admission. I noticed that for a bachelor's degree at the University of the People (UoPeople), only a Duolingo score of 95 is required. So, can I first apply for a degree at UoPeople, take some courses, earn some credits, and then transfer to UMPI or TESU to pursue a Bachelor of Arts in English in the middle of my studies? Is this plan feasible?
I have a limited budget. What kind of credit matching plan would be the most cost-effective?
Thank you all.
