===Alt Courses===
The alternative credit courses were handpicked using experience from previous students as to what courses will be the easiest and quickest courses to take. In places with multiple courses listed, the first course is assumed to be the fastest/easiest course to take.

===How Long Will It Take To Complete This Degree Once I Finish All the Alterative Credits?===
How long to complete depends on various factors such as experience, time commitment, the efficiency of studying, etc. However, considering you spend at least 20 hours a week on your studies, completing this degree could take 1-2 sessions @ a cost of $1400 tuition per session. 
 
===How the General Education Curriculum Works===
The GEC of UMPI is one of the most complex and hardest to understand of any college.
 
Some key things to keep in mind
 
*You need at least one course to meet each objective
*One course can meet multiple objectives
*You need 40 unique credit hours worth of courses
