Hello everyone! My name is Steven, and I am new hear. I am 51 years old, and I am researching ways to quickly earn my bachelor's degree. I have 46 credits, but they are very aged. Some are from 1998, and some are from 2011-2013. I do not know 100% what degree I want it in or if I can even find what I am looking for in an online self-paced collage that will allow for Sofia credits and/or study.com credits.

My thoughts right now are:

1. nutrition
2. Psychology 
3. Biblical studies


However, as stated, I am not 100% sold on any particular degree at this time. I am just doing the research, so I am open to ideas.

One of my BIG concerns is, I will not be able to get traditional financial aid (Yes, I have checked, yes, I am positive) so I will also be seeking guidance on how I might can find and obtain other grants and scholarships that I am unaware of at the moment.

Here is the list of classes I have already taken and have a total of 46 credits.

1. PSYC - 2301 - GENERAL PSYCHOLOGY
   
2. PSYC - 2372 - ABNORMAL PSYCHOLOGY
   
3. ENGL - 1301 - COMPOSITION / RHETORIC I
   
4. CDEC - 1319 - CHILD GUIDANCE
   
5. DRAM - 1310 - INTRO TO THEATRE
   
6. GOVT - 2301 - AMERICAN GOVERNMENT 1
   
7. HIST - 1301 - U.S. HISTORY I
   
8. SPCH -1311 - FUNDAMENTALS OF SPEECH COMMUNICATION
   
9. GOVT - 2302 - AMERICAN GOVERNMENT II
   
10. HUMA - 1301 - INTRODUCTION TO THE HUMANITIES
    
11. COSC - 1301 - COMPUTERS AND TECHNOLOGY
    
12. ECON - 1301 - INTRODUCTION TO ECONOMICS
    
13. PSYC - 2315 - PSYCHOLOGY OF ADJUSTMENT
    
14. PHED - 1117 - BEGINNING TENNIS
    
15. HIST - 2301 - HISTORY OF TEXAS
    
16. PSYC - 2306 - HUMAN SEXUALITY
    

Anyone know which sophia learning credits transfer? My advisor told me they take them but didn't tell me which ones they accept?

Hello everyone, 

I'm happy i found this forum and need help in choosing a bachelor degree. I took a gap year after attending a baptist college for the ministry, so it'll be a fresh start for me. I want to be doing something tech related and want to start right away. I'm looking at either cs or data science, but really just want a tech degree that is lucrative and has a good work life balance. I already started the memberships for study.com and sophia.org. and am just working on the regular gen-ed courses.

Hi everyone! I'm almost done with my courses to transfer to UMPI and I'm hoping to send transcripts by this Friday - this may be too soon as I'm not sure yet how fast I can complete these classes, but we will see! The problem is, if I am going to start UMPI next session, I can only transfer up to 5 classes from study.com since that is the max number of exams they allow per month. So I am wondering if anyone has experience with the following 7 courses at UMPI.

I will need to take 2 of these at UMPI, so if any of them are particularly quick to complete OR extremely lengthy, that would be very helpful info for me to decide which ones I'll take:

BUS 240: Change Management
BUS 260: Leadership
BUS 321: Human Resource Management
BUS 415: Operations Management

PSY 200: Social Psychology
PSY 235: Abnormal Psychology
PSY 311: Research Methods I

Thank you!!!

I am looking to get an Associate's Degree from Pierpont while it is still possible. I want to then go on and get a Bachelor's degree slowly. I believe I have most of the credits for the general education requirements, but I wanted to check if I am understanding correctly:

Communications: English Composition I (3 crs)
Social Sciences: Sociology (3 crs)
Computer Literacy: Do not have. Would Sophia Learning be the quickest/easiest/cheapest option for this?
Math/Science: General Astronomy (3 crs). Is Astronomy accepted towards this requirement? Would CSM Learn or a Sophia course be the best choice for the remaining credits?

If I apply tomorrow and start the courses right away, is it feasible to make the October 4 deadline? Any suggestions?

Thanks all!

I'm a married mother of 2 kids in school, live in CA. I am fluent in Spanish (born and raised in South America). I think UMPI could be a good fit for me time-wise and money-wise. I am not sure whether to pursue a BLS. I wanna have a degree to check the box but hopefully in the future achieve a masters and put it to work. 
I have a chance to work as a sub at my kids' school (temporarily), which requires a bachelor degree in any area. However, I do not desire to work as a teacher (I used to, in the past), therefore my dilemma on what kind of degree. I am pretty good at liberal arts and I used to love science subjects. However, I find it a bit harder to do math and such in english, but I am a fast learner.

I want to be able to transfer the maximum amount of credits permitted by UMPI (90 credits) through Sophia or CLEP, but I have no idea which classes are recommended in order to not exceed the max needed per group category. I looked at the UMPI General ED curriculum and I am not sure whether that appplies to YOUR PACE as well. 

Also, I am confused about the total amount of GE required. On effective written and oral communication the subcategories A and D for example, repeat  ENG 101. Can my ENG 101 apply to both A and D? or do I have to fulfill one of the ctaegories with another class such as ENG 100?
Thanks for any help !!!

I am currently taking English Comp I through Sophia. I have just submitted my last touchstone for that course. I plan on taking workplace writing II after. I am also enrolled in US history I. I will be completing Spanish and Intro to Sociology through Sophia as well. I should have everything complete by the 24th by my estimation.
Any direction you all could provide would be great. I was leaning towards the BLS with a Management or Project Management Minor. I heard there is a Business Administration Minor but can’t find it on their UMPI’s site. I don’t want to take the BABA because it would involve more classes taken through UMPI. I am trying to finish in 2 sessions max. 

Winthrop University is now offering an online Bachelor's completion program in Professional Studies: https://online.winthrop.edu/programs/bps...al-studies

Need a minimum of 30 credits in order to transfer, and you can transfer up to 75% of eligible credits (it seems that CLEP credits are capped at 30 with no mention of other alt credits). Credit of prior learning can give 15 credits.

The self-paced curriculum is delivered in a 14-week subscription model with flat-rate pricing; less than 12 credits (part-time) is $1,750, and 12 or more credits (full-time) costs $3,500 per subscription period. No limit to the amount of classes you can take full-time, however any unfinished classes will be rolled over to the next period. Each course is separated into 6 competencies (similar to modules) that you complete in whatever order and whatever speed that you want to.

The online B.P.S. offers 4 concentrations, one which needs to be selected: 
Community and Health Services
Health Informatics
Organizational Leadership
Organizational Operations

B.P.S. curriculum: https://online.winthrop.edu/programs/bps...curriculum

This is Winthrop University's first offering of a CBE program as part of their "Elevate" program, and they state in their FAQ that more programs will be available in the future: https://www.winthrop.edu/elevate/

Winthrop University is a public university based in Rock Hill, South Carolina and has been recognized as top-rated within that state. The school is accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.

Hey folks,

I'm on the hunt for universities or colleges in the U.S. that offer free online courses where I can enroll as a non-degree student. The catch is, I'd prefer if they don't require official transcripts—unofficial ones would be great. Plus, it would be awesome if the application process doesn't cost anything. If anyone has been through this or knows where I can find such opportunities, I'd love to hear from you. Thanks a bunch!
