===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

*One course can meet multiple objectives
*You need 40 unique credit hours worth of courses
