Interested in Taking a Course,

But Not Sure Which One?

Consider How Much Time Each Week a Student has to Devote to a College Course

A typical semester is 15 weeks long. For every 1 credit hour of enrollment, students will spend approximately 2-3 hours outside of class studying. Thus, one 3 credit course = 3 hours in class per week + 6-9 hours study time per week = 9-12 total hours per week.

  • 15 week course= ~9-12 hours per week
  • 6 or 7 week course= ~ 20 hours per week
  • 3 week course= ~40 hours per week (Not all campuses allow students to take 3 week courses due to the intensity of the workload)

In Person (P)

Courses will be taught in-person, on-campus on the days and hours listed in the course schedule.

Online (WW)

Courses will be conducted entirely online through Brightspace or another learning management system (asynchronous) and digital course materials, such as video lectures, readings, discussion boards, etc. Students will not attend a scheduled course session at a campus location or through Zoom.

Distance Synchronous (DS)

Courses will be conducted entirely in LIVE (synchronous), online sessions (using Zoom or similar tools) on the days and hours listed in the course schedule. Students will not attend course on-campus.

Hybrid/Blended (HB)

Courses will be a mixture of in-person classroom instruction and online components. Students should be available on the days and hours listed in the schedule of course meetings.

Hyflex (HF)

A single course is designed so students can choose the instruction mode that fits their needs. Courses designated hyflex shall be offered both in-person and distance synchronously. There shall be no requirement to record courses or to provide copies of such recordings to anyone. Students can choose to experience the course flexibly through any one of the two (possibly three) modes interchangeably during the semester. Student still need to keep pace with the course schedule.

For questions and information on the specific courses above, contact the Early College Administrator at that campus.

General

  • Every college and university has their own policies and procedures regarding how transfer credits may be applied to a student’s program requirements at their college.
  • If students are taking courses to transfer to another college, it is the student’s responsibility to confirm those courses will transfer to the intended college and program.
  • If students are taking courses to transfer to another college, the grades earned in those courses will appear on the student’s college transcript; however they will NOT be calculated into the student’s college GPA. 
  • If students have specific questions about how a course will transfer to another college, please contact the Admissions Office, Transfer Office, or Registrar/Office of Student Records at that college.

Transferring Courses Within the UMS

  • Students do not need to request official transcripts if transferring within the UMS. Transcripts are automatically available to UMS admissions and transfer staff (if students do not have a hold on their account).
  • Courses completed with a C- or higher, including P grades, will transfer from one UMS campus to another.
  • Some programs/majors within the UMS may require grades higher than a C- in order for courses to transfer.
  • When transferring courses, the grades earned will appear on the student’s transcript; however they will NOT be calculated into the student’s GPA. 
  • Use the Transfer Equivalency Search (External Site) in MaineStreet to see a full list of how courses from one UMS institution transfer to another on a course-for-course basis. Students can view information about how the top 10 online courses transfer within the UMS below.
    • This search will only give guidance about how courses may transfer into the UMS. It will NOT tell how courses within the UMS may transfer to other colleges.
    • Due to ongoing curriculum development and program updates, course equivalencies are subject to change at any time.
    • This information is to be used as a guide only and is NOT a guarantee of credit transfer

Transferring Courses Outside the UMS

  • Students must send official transcripts from the UMS campus directly to the other college.
  • Some colleges may require a C grade or above in order for courses to transfer.
  • Some colleges may require that a student take all the courses in their program/major at their college even if the student has taken the equivalent course already at a UMS campus.
  • Some colleges may not accept Concurrent Enrollment (CE) courses for transfer credit. A CE course is defined as a college course taken at their high school and taught by a college-approved high school teacher.
  • To learn more about the likelihood of the transferability of early college credit to a particular institution, check out this shared Credit Transfer Database (External Site) created by the University of Connecticut’s Early College Program. Over 900 post-secondary institutions across the country are included.

If students have general questions about transferring their courses, contact earlycollegeadvising@maine.edu.
