=== Introduction ===
Here is a General Education Requirements that will work for all degree plans for the [[University of Maine at Presque Isle]] (UMPI) as of approximately February of 2024.  Please make sure that the suggestions are still valid before beginning to follow this plan.
There are a number of possible minors that can be done at [[University of Maine at Presque Isle]] (UMPI).  Some of these are possible, others are not.  Always check the [http://catalog.umpi.edu/content.php?catoid=6&navoid=225 UMPI minor catalog] to confirm if a minor still exists before making plans to complete it.


Credit to [https://degreeforum.net/mybb/ DegreeForum] members '''ss20ts''', '''ashkir''', and others for making it possible to plan alt credits for degrees at UMPI.
Compared to other colleges, getting minors at UMPI is relatively quick and cheap to get.


=== Alt Courses ===
=== Reasons to Pick a Minor ===
The alternative credit courses were handpicked using experience from previous students regarding which courses will be the easiest and quickest to take. In places with multiple courses listed, the '''first course''' is assumed to be the fastest/easiest to complete. Sophia is mostly used since it's the fastest/cheapest of the alternative providers for most courses.
Picking a minor can be just as important as picking a major. Minors can enhance your degree in a variety of ways. Here are some of the things that a minor could do for you:


===Tips on Order in Which to Complete Courses===
* Allow you to explore a new topic in a higher education setting
Start with [[Sophia.org]]. Unfortunately, Sophia only allows two courses to be open at one time, so only complete one course at a time that has touchstones (written assignments). Once done with Sophia, move on to Study.com.
* Expand on your major and increase your knowledge in that subject area
* Provide new content to make you a more marketable professional


===Source of Credit===
While minors are not a requirement, they are an exciting option for undergraduate students. By choosing one of UMPI's minors, you can provide yourself with new knowledge, skills, and experiences. Not only can a minor add value to your education — it can also enrich your life.
 
=== Minor Requirements ===
The following are what is required for each minor.
 
* Each minor course has to be offered by UMPI YourPace or you need to transfer it in.
* Each minor requires 9 unique credits of the required credits that can't overlap another minor.
* All other credits can overlap each other
* There are no residency requirements except for the BLS has a 9cr residency requirement for the 1st minor.
* You can do a max of 3 minors
* You need to get permission to take minors that are outside of YourPace.

Though on another DB, it says it comes in Philosophy Elective, which doesn't cover 2D. So take this course at Sophia at your own risk and be ready to file an appeal if the course doesn't meet the 2D requirement.
