General Education Requirements (Beta)
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 July of 2022. Please make sure that the suggestions are still valid before beginning to follow this plan.
Credit to DegreeForum members ss20ts, ashkir, and others for making it possible to plan alt credits for degrees at UMPI.
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.
Tips on Order in Which to Complete Courses
Start with Sophia.org. Unfortunately, Sophia only allows 2 courses open at one time, so do only one course at a time that has touchstones (written assignments). Once done with Sophia, do Study.com
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
Source of Credit
This degree plan was made using these sources to map out all the alternative credits.
- UMPI GEC requirements
- UMPI Database (Click Transfer Equiv, then transfer course, select Presque Isle, then click on letter of institution)
- Sophia.org Equivalency List
- Study.com Official Transfer Guide
- Compiled List of Courses and Corresponding Tests (For CLEP, AP and Straighterline course options)
- Sophia, Study.com are the course providers recommended in this degree plan
