According to U.S. Census Bureau statistics, people with a bachelor's degree earn over sixty percent more on average than those with only a high school diploma. Over a lifetime, the gap in earning potential between a high school diploma and a B.A. (or higher) is more than $1,000,000-yes, one million dollars. If a little voice inside of you says that you deserve a college degree for what you already know, if you believe you know more than the new employee who is straight out of college, if you are willing to commit two hours a day to study, then you are one year away from your college degree. This program is about getting credit for what you already know using techniques such as testing out, courses and workshops that you have already completed, military experience, and prior learning assessment portfolios. The advantage of this method is that it is much faster, cheaper and more flexible than taking courses, even if you take the courses online. You can earn a regionally accredited (the gold standard of accreditation in the U.S.) bachelor's degree in a year or less, but only commit yourself to two hours a day. You just need to be of reasonable intelligence, have a high school diploma or equivalent, and read and write English at the level expected of someone who has graduated high school with a diploma.
