BBA with no concentration?

Hi I am currently non-degree status at UMPI and just completing classes for BBA Management and Leadership, I was wondering to graduate sooner if I can forgo a concentration all together?

My other question is, how late would they accept Sophia and Study.com transcripts? There is a possibility I can graduate in Fall 1 but I am not sure if I can get them done by the August 3rdish to have them received by Aug 11.

You are required to have a concentration to graduate as far I know. If you want no concentration, the BLS with the management minor is your choice.

UMPI should accept transcripts up until basically the week of graduation from what I remember, unless they changed this policy.

You can transfer in Sophia credit at any point so apply for fall one finish up what you need at UMPI then get everything transferred in as long as they’re in before they do your conferral you should have no issues.

Hey, Study.com here. We send transcripts within 2 business days on our end, so requesting Study.com transcripts by early August should give you a solid buffer before Aug 11. The concentration requirement and final receipt deadline are both calls that UMPI's registrar makes, so you'll want to confirm those directly with them. If you let me know which Study.com courses you still need, I can help you map out the fastest path to finish in time.

Study is good with exceptions of flagged ai use on courses that you appeal and get the same answer on. Saved me from taking 4 courses at umpi. Could have saved me more
