Hello my friend @ College hacked i’m so happy that since this episode is aired, I’ve been able to help others take the road that I have taken that was so well laid out by Dr. Cliff, which was just a little bit over a year ago and since then to give you an update, not only do I have from UMPI a bachelors in arts and a masters in organizational leadership but I also got another bachelors in business administration from them just finished an MBA at Hellenic American College for $3000 and a masters of theology and two courses away from a masters of divinity at nation university and I’m five months in during the second semester of my 12 month, doctoral program at Virginia University Of Lynchburg for Dr. of healthcare administration. And this is coming from somebody who you and a half ago didn’t even have their bachelors and we’re taking courses at Sophia.
This is an excellent testimonial and I’m sure his story is inspiring to most people who watch your channel. Not just because he’s eligible for a PhD in a year; but because a year ago he didn’t think a Bachelors program was possible. That’s a significant point. It definitely resonates with me. I’ve done one meeting with Laura and I’ll have my follow up soon
How cool is this? I am 62 and will finish my associate's, I need a certification next month, then consultation with a goal of a master's and then a doctorate... I am free up and tell everyone I am a full-time college student! You can teach old dogs new tricks!
Love to see this story!!! Congratulations Eric. I start UMPI next session and need to get through about 12 classes. I am planning to give myself 2 sessions to complete, with the goal of 1 session. YOU ARE AN INSPIRATION!!! Congratulations!!!
Extremely inspirational and congratulations to Eric! I wish UMPI were an option for my son (about to turn 18), but we will definitely look at it for the Masters.
I love this! Very inspirational. Congratulations friend. Our back stories are very similar down to the age. I start UMPI's August session with only minor core to complete. My goal is to finish early to leave room for some master's work. Im so excited!!! Thanks Dr for all the great info.
Congratulations, Eric!! Way to go!! I am turning 50 soon on 11/20 & have been researching online schools for a BA in Psychology. UMPI keeps coming up! Now I’ve found this great channel on UA-cam! I have an AA degree from 1994, but no longer wish to be in that industry. Thus, your testimony here is a testament to what we CAN do at any age! Thank you for all the pertinent day to day knowledge of what you did to get through all the classes & work; while still doing normal life. You have laid a good roadmap. Again, thank you & Congratulations!! 💻📚📝🎓🥳
Did you decide on UMPI for psychology degree? What were your second and third choice schools for BA in psychology? I’m considering that degree as well.
Congrats Eric! I also went to UMPI based on the information in these videos and it’s been amazing. Almost done my first term at Umpi and I finished 5 classes. I also did 6 classes on Sophia in 1 month
Congratulations Eric! thank you for sharing your experience and being open about your challenges. I'm currently enrolled in UMPI for the BLS and will be taking the 3 MAOL courses you suggested, great idea!
Seeing how excited he was to see that he could accomplish it really warms my heart. I always felt that when it comes to boys and they see that you're struggling they just write you off and say well he can always be a day labourer or something not that there's anything wrong with that if that's truly your path. but what about the kid that wants to be rocket engineer but just needs a little bit of help getting started. that's what I like about Online colleges because it gives people chance to truly see that they are capable and they sore !

Congratulation Eric, congratulations this was the video besides one more from this channel that inspired me to sign up at UMPI, and to be honest I never heard of the school never knew about his existence until I stumbled on this video I transferred to UMPI they took 101 credits And now I’m getting ready to begin this March. Thank you so much for this video. Thank you so much for this channel I completed a total of 60 credits at Sophia.
Congrats Eric..you are truly inspirational! I am on the road to getting my degree still torn to about which school to get my bachelor's in. Good Luck to you,it's only up from here!
His story is really helpful. I have a very demanding full time job, working with families who have special needs. A bachelors would allow me to get the masters I need in my field.
Really encouraging as I am a truck driver and finished high school with penn foster in the back of my truck with a lap top. After that I tackled a couple main courses with Sophia just to see if I could do it. Currently I'm am looking at different school options that fit my lifestyle. Thank you for your testimony
He was very inspirational He made me tear up That’s the thing I try to tell high school students Just bcuz you didn’t feel smart or someone told you that you weren’t smart enough Doesn’t mean you aren’t smart enough to go to college College is a different world all together In high school I didn’t make good grades until 11/12 grade year I got to college and made Deans List. Go one year if you can afford it for the experience and see if you like it But if I could do it all over again I would have CLEPed my way through college. Thinking of going back once my daughter graduates high school. Do it w her. So, that she finishes and gets a degree.
Congratulations Eric! Thank you Dr. Stumme! I start UMPI on May 8 and this is very inspiring! I am hoping to earn credits as quickly as possible myself. I was concerned that waiting for milestones to be approved would slow me down, but it doesn't seem like that's the case. I'm curious if there is a benefit to taking courses at Sophia first if you receive a Pell Grant... Is it about the cost savings or are Sophia courses easier/faster?
From watching this video, it was very inspirational. I am thinking of going to UMPI to get my undergraduate in psychology. I also will be transferring the maximum amount of units into the institution and hoping to finish my undergraduate studies within one term as well. 🥳🥳
You can retake it :) But you can also take intro to statistics on Sophia if you’re a Liberal Studies major to knock your math out :) Way less pressure to do it on Sophia.
I think what we need is a network of degree hackers and also a post interview talking about what job or career they got. All this don’t mean nothing if they don’t get a great job or career
Actually sometimes it does :) Many of our clients are fulfilling a lifelong goal when they complete a degree, not everyone is shooting for a new job or promotion. The degree is the equalizer, but the individual is the one who ultimately earns the job.
I signed up with UMPI and will begin in March. Your video eased my nerves, thank you. Could you make a tutorial on picking courses, managing things around, and giving some guidance?
Eric, I am also a client of Cliff/Loren and would love to talk to you before I start UMPI in a couple weeks. Just have some questions about your personal experience since I am also on a time sensitive mission to complete asap. Any connection help would be greatly appreciated
I am already an SNHU student and I found it hard to finish 1 class for an 8 weeks term, how could he possibly finish 2 classes per week at UMPI? Great job 😊
Hi! Could you please do a review on Penn Foster College programs ? They have a partnership with Sophia Learning and offer Bachelor's degrees. They are self paced programs allowing the students to take as much time as needed per semester.
Gotta make your plan first. If you have a lot of credits, I'd apply and transfer first to get that evaluation and then start hacking. Happy to explain more in a consult: www.collegehacked.com.
I did 20 Sophia courses in 2 months. My goal is to take 25 courses before I start My BS in Business Administration at SNHU in January 2024. I have already transferred 15 credits from my certificates (PMP, CSM, CAPM, Google Project Management).
Thank you. I did not know about Sophia before, but after watching some of your videos, I learned a lot of things about Sophia. I asked my counselor, but she never or does not want to say anything about that. After I contacted the financial department, one of them asked me, “Why do you not take Sophia courses like other people are doing? She explained everything more than my counselor “, which helped me to go to Sophia learning.
@@hayhays.channel I have completed Sophia courses and a Google Certificate project management, which SNHU accepted ( All were submitted on December 15, 2023). To obtain my Bachelor's degree, I need to complete 30 additional credits and will begin on January 8th.

(needing to transfer A TON of credits from German and Austrian University and need to finish real fast since I have so very little money! Positive: I love writing and research!) Please help 🤗✨
A consultation with us pays for itself if you hack even one average-cost university course, and we often help people hack 30 out of 40 classes needed for their degree. So while it might seem expensive, what's actually expensive is not meeting with us. ;)
@@CollegeHacked paying $99 for Sophia courses is an easy payment but dropping $500 upfront to have a conversation isn’t exactly ideal and I wish it was. Thanks though.
If you have a bunch of old college credits but your grades weren’t great, is it better to use the credits to graduate fast OR is it more advantageous to take courses over again and not use the old ones? I guess my question is “Do average or low GPA’s matter anymore when applying to grad school”?
Your GPA will only be based on the classes you took at the school you graduate from :) Any classes you took at prior schools will only transfer if they were a 'C' or better, and they'll transfer in as a "pass"! Use all the credit you have, nail the classes you take at your new school, and then you don't have to worry about your GPA! And about grad schools--there's usually a way to still gain acceptance (write an explanation letter, take a probationary class with the program to see how you do, etc.) even with a low undergrad GPA. But you usually still need at least a 2.0 or a 2.5
Need Advice! I`m 44 years old. I graduated with a Business Degree and have a Masters in Education. I`m teaching for the last 17 yrs, but wanted a career switch into Business/IT Management/Healthcare/Supply Chain career. Should I go straight Competency Based to MBA in IT in WGU or take Competency Fast Track Bachelor`s in Project Management in UMPI? Any suggestion is welcome! Thanks!

The recommendation is simple. A degree. Sounds stupid I know
Congratulations 🎉 please, would you like to get in touch with me. I am in the process of applying for the masters too. Am SO grateful for any hints!
(needing to transfer A TON of credits from German and Austrian University and need to finish real fast since I have so very little money! Positive: I love writing and research!)
Please help 🤗✨
What can you do with an organizational leadership masters? Is this good for non-profit leadership?
Definitely!
How are UMPI's classes? It sounds as if they are very similar in structure to Sophia with more writing. Would that be accurate?
Accurate! :)

YES!
I’m a stay at home mom with my spouse who is deployed. I really wish I could afford a consultation with you 😢
A consultation with us pays for itself if you hack even one average-cost university course, and we often help people hack 30 out of 40 classes needed for their degree. So while it might seem expensive, what's actually expensive is not meeting with us. ;)
@@CollegeHacked paying $99 for Sophia courses is an easy payment but dropping $500 upfront to have a conversation isn’t exactly ideal and I wish it was. Thanks though.
If you have a bunch of old college credits but your grades weren’t great, is it better to use the credits to graduate fast OR is it more advantageous to take courses over again and not use the old ones? I guess my question is “Do average or low GPA’s matter anymore when applying to grad school”?
Your GPA will only be based on the classes you took at the school you graduate from :) Any classes you took at prior schools will only transfer if they were a 'C' or better, and they'll transfer in as a "pass"! Use all the credit you have, nail the classes you take at your new school, and then you don't have to worry about your GPA! And about grad schools--there's usually a way to still gain acceptance (write an explanation letter, take a probationary class with the program to see how you do, etc.) even with a low undergrad GPA. But you usually still need at least a 2.0 or a 2.5
Are the test proctored ?
UMPI does not currently proctor any of their YourPace exams!
Need Advice! I`m 44 years old. I graduated with a Business Degree and have a Masters in Education. I`m teaching for the last 17 yrs, but wanted a career switch into Business/IT Management/Healthcare/Supply Chain career. Should I go straight Competency Based to MBA in IT in WGU or take Competency Fast Track Bachelor`s in Project Management in UMPI? Any suggestion is welcome! Thanks!
WGU ITM Masters gives you the CAPM certification I believe

I hate discussion boards. I am glad they confirmed that it is part of the program. Now, I know to not attend.
UMPI does not have discussion board assignments in their YourPace degrees, not sure if that’s what you were referring to
Eric,
what an inspiration.
Thank you 🙏
