Fast Online Degrees: a Way to Reduce College Expenses

College can be a very large expense, and reasonable questions to ask are “Is college worth it? What’s the return on investment?”

The short answer is that it depends. It depends on where you attend college, how expensive it is, what subject your degree is going to be in, and whether that degree can provide a return on the college investment.

There are ways to determine all of these factors with a degree of reasonable expectation.

The costs of college tuition varies considerably.

On average state schools are largely less expensive than private schools. But there are exceptions.

The “investment” factor of the equation can differ greatly.

There are some colleges that offer fast online degrees that can be completed in about half the time (in two years) as compared to the traditional time of earning a bachelor degree (which is four years).

This strategy can reduce the cost of college in general for getting a bachelor’s degree.

Also attending college online means that you won’t have the housing and living expenses of on-campus residential school. So fast online degrees can be a large savings as compared to a four year on-campus experience.

Some colleges accept transfer credits from Sophia Learning, and this can both save money and time in getting a bachelor’s degree.

Sophia Learning is a third party education provider that offers basic classes that can be transferred into your degree program at a participating university or college.

What’s great about Sophia Learning is that you can complete as many classes as possible within certain time frames, and for inexpensive flat rate costs.

For $99 a student gets one month to take as many classes as possible.
