I started in November 2023 and I’m in my last psych class in December 2023 it took me 6weeks total with flex path at Capella. But I was studying non stop the whole time
Hey my man Ryan I hope you are having a good day and staying safe out there. I was wondering if you were going to talk about more majors later on. Like careers in architecture (arts), archeology (history), or other majors in that form of matter. If you don't mind that, of course. I'm just trying to help you out here, that's all.
Absolutely! I'll be doing a whole bunch of these videos covering lots of different majors. I'll add these majors to the list! Thanks so much for the feedback.
University of Maine at Presque Isle(UMPI) has a psychology degree that could be completed in less than a year (transfer in tons of Sophia credits). SNHU (Southern New Hampshire Univesity has a BA,BS and MASTERS that you can complete in a year to 1 1/2 years. Liberty University also offers degrees (BA or BS) in Psychology, Counseling. With umpi you can take as many courses as you want within the structure of each 8 week term (one at a time in a semester) Oh, Penn State World Campus ALSO has a terrific Psych. degree but it is way more expensive. TESU is not that fast and I have read of a great of students having problems with Capella regarding tuition etc.
Thanks! Yes, UMPI added their Psych program after I released this video but I do go into that program in other videos. Thanks for adding value to the channel!
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I'm wondering about capella university, do we need to take credits from third party exams as Thomas Addison uni to finish early?
Hey! Thanks forthe helpful content. Can I get one of the degrees from wgu and then go on to get my masters somewhere and still become a licensed counsellor?
Most likely, as long as you're choosing the right programs. If you're serious about hacking a Bachelor's Degree, shoot me an email (ryan@9monthgrad.com). I can help you map something out.
Capella is owned by the same company that owns Sophia.org. I'd see if they'll accept 12 credits from Sophia. Having said that, I'm not a fan of Capella... The only reason I talk about them in this video is because they offer the only Self Paced Psychology Degree that I know of. For some reason, there just aren't many self paced options for Psych. Feel free to reach out and tell me more about your situation. Maybe there are other majors that will open the same doors, but can be done faster. I'm happy to give advice... (ryan@9monthgrad.com)
Do you know any online regionally accredited universities where I could get a dual degree in psychology and philosophy? If not, then do you know any just for philosophy? Thank you
Great question. If I was wanting to Hack my undergrad, then apply for med school... I'd probably go with University of Wisconsin's "Flex" program in Health Science. Then apply for Med School.
I'm a big fan of doing the employment research ahead of time. I'd look at potential jobs/companies you want to work for, and make sure the degree will open the doors. I don't love Capella, but they're one of 2 schools (that I know of) that have CBE based Master's programs in psych. Walden is the other.
Hi I wanted to earn either a philosophy or a psychology degree then go to law school, but I’m gravitating towards WGU. What degree should I take at WGU?
I love it. Here are some WGU Degrees that are related to counseling type careers... www.wgu.edu/online-nursing-health-degrees/counseling-wgu.html#close But make sure you choose a major that's going to get you into law school. Business Majors are great for Law School. And they're easy to hack. Feel free to reach out if you're serious about this stuff... (ryan@9monthgrad.com)
The cost of the degree will depend on how fast you graduate. If you find schools that charge per semester, instead of per credit... you're only required to pay tuition for the amount of time you're in school.
Absolutely, hopefully we can find you a faster path to graduation. Shoot me an email (ryan@9monthgrad.com) and tell me a little bit about your situation. Then I can shoot you my booking link if it looks like we can find you a solid path.
Accelerated Psychology programs are actually pretty hard to find. Capella has a Hackable Psychology program, and I believe Thomas Edison State University does as well.
Hello Ryan I am a European final year student in my Bachelor of Science in Electromechanical Engineering. I would like to get a master's degree afterwards. Also in engineering with a preference for something energy related like energy engineering, by this I don't mean energy as in electrical power or power electronics but rather renewable energy systems. I have been looking for a while to an online program with a reasonable tution fee and duration. Do you maybe know where there are any possibilities to do this kind of program?
Unfortunately, those niche Engineering degrees are harder to accelerate. I don't know of any Universities that offer programs that meet your description.
I'm a much bigger fan of hitting the internet to learn the info... For example, for my Math classes I used RU-vid. The biggest thing is being able to know exactly what you need to learn to study for the exams. If you know exactly what you need to learn, you can skip the other 80% - 90% of the curriculum. I have full systems for how to do this. I teach how to do all of this inside my Degree Hacking Academy program. Here's a look if you're interested: www.DegreeHackingAcademy.com
@@carolabroad8302 unfortunately I’ve had to take a break from classes because my business is taking off! But, I was able to knock out a ton of coursework using Sophia Learning!
Capella is the only school I know of with a Competency Based Psych program... But there are some others that will allow you to hack about 3 years worth of credits through 3rd party exams, then transfer in. Possibly Excelsior College, Thomas Edison, Liberty, SNHU. I really wish there were more options for Psychology. But it is what it is. Hope this helps!
@@9monthcollegegrad-ryansway671 SNHU will allow you to transfer up to 90 credits, you can bring in ACE recommended courses, Sophia, CLEP, etc. If you transfer 90 credits you can complete your BA in 10 months (5 academic terms) for less than $10,000. This is for their regular term-based programs which sounds like a better option than Capella. Mainly because Capella also does not allow students who start with FlexPath to bring in any additional credit after enrolling. SNHU will allow you to continue to bring in credit until you reach your 90 transfer credit limit. SNHU is also non-profit, whereas Capella is for-profit. If you are able to enroll in SNHU's competency-based degree options you will also save a ton of money, they typically price their terms similarly or lower than WGU. However, there are other schools that are even more transfer friendly like Excelsior U. Excelsior offers a BS in Psych that allows up to 113 transfer credits. Excelsior's tuition is higher but if a student completes courses with a partner (like Study.com) they can get up to a 20% tuition discount.
Yep, you're right. Lot's of people choose to earn credits through 3rd party services then transfer. And sometimes that's a great strategy. I prefer testing out of classes through Universities instead of 3rd party. I'm not a huge fan of SNHU or Capella. I do really like WGU though. And their 6 month semesters are pretty awesome as well.
@@9monthcollegegrad-ryansway671 If you do SNHU's competency-based programs you will be able to do the same as WGU or UMPI. Instead of proctored tests though, SNHU usually does projects to test your competency for each section (no need to transfer credit in). Big downside is that enrollment in these programs is limited to certain geographic areas through community partners. I wish these programs had more offerings. I'm really intrigued in WGU but they don't seem to have some of the programs I'm looking into.
Unfortunately, SNHU has paused all of their CBE programs. They are currently making changes to the structure of those programs. And they aren't giving much more info for that. There's no timeline either. Shoot me an email with specifics on what majors you're looking into and I'll see if I can help you find something. (ryan@9monthgrad.com).
@@PraiseJohnson-gn4fg Absolutely. If you want to get it done faster, feel free to reach out. I can probably help you get the degree a lot faster... (ryan@9monthgrad.com)
