Flexibility is key
Students, depending on their areas of study, complete associate degree programs in as little as nine months, although a full-time student will typically take two years. Many receive credit for prior work experience or previous college classes, reducing the number of courses they need to complete to graduate. People with busy schedules appreciate the opportunity to complete some or all classes through the GU/MSB online option.
