Different Paths to a College Degree

Good that you mentioned Southern New Hampshire University's 2-year Advantage program. a low cost jump start to a bachelor's degree. But, SNHU also has an integrated 3 year degree where students earn 120 credits in a competency and learning outcomes based program without attending extra courses (no summers, no extra semester courses, no weekends, etc.)

They can do this because SNHU reworked its existing four year eight semester BS in business administration into six semesters using competencies, not seat-time. Not only does this save students 35% of a college education, but it saves the university almost that much in course delivery costs. A win-win for all.
