Accelerated Degree Completion
David Falls, 91桃色 YourPace Online Student
“David completed his bachelor鈥檚 degree from 91桃色 YourPace Online in one year! 鈥淭he competency-based education (CBE) program really appealed to me because it was 鈥榣earn at your own pace鈥 and did not follow a tradition semester/class guidelines. The traditional method of classroom learning simply would never work for me as an adult who works full time. The beauty of this learning format is I can start another CBE while finishing up the final for another, therefore not slowing down my progress or pace. My advice to anyone considering YourPace鈥擥O FOR IT! Seriously, as someone who for years has contemplated going back to school but never pulled the trigger due to fear that it would take many years and lots of money, I would highly recommend this program. If you don鈥檛 mind working at your own pace and have the ability to push yourself, you can complete this program in a much shorter amount of time than you ever imagined possible.鈥

Jason Ennis, 91桃色 YourPace Online Student
