I am a mother of 2, and I work full time. I am considering Capella University's flex-path. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Compare the price to Online University | Online Degree Programs | WGU. Their flexpath is a copycat of WGU's affordable programs.
Hi maryjean,
I see that Capella may be a bit more expensive, but there is no math stats requirement or chemistry, that's why I was leaning toward capella vs WGU

That can disqualify you for n MSN down the road. Just an FYI

I work full-time & have a 4 and 2 year old at home so I know all about finding a good balance.
Capella is extremely giving with transfer credits. I went into it only needing 11 classes coming right out of an associates program. I started this past August & have 4 remaining classes. You have 12 weeks to take your time or bust it all out! Most classes have 4 assignments while some have 5 that are mixed between APA papers, power points, & newsletter type assignments.
There is no math, discussions, quizzes, and/or exams which was a HUGE plus for me with what is already a crazy life lol & the freedom to choose my own due dates & breeze through what I already know. Some classes I took almost the whole 12 weeks & others I went right through in 3-4 weeks.
Feel free to ask any questions!
