It defines electives as anything not already used for the specific degree, with upper-level electives being UMPI-evaluated 300 and 400 level courses and lower levels being 100 and 200 level courses. It notes Sophia offers only four upper-level elective-capable classes, while Study.com provides more options, including pathways to minors such as history minor through five upper-level history classes. Coursera certifications can count toward elective credits, including 15 elective credits for the Google IT Support certification and upper-level elective and business credit mappings for project management and marketing certifications.
