    It used the model of BA in 4 weeks. But I completed my degree in 24 months at the non-Big Three.

    There are some changes to Excelsior's requirements that change the feasibility of the program as it's laid out- there are some classroom requirements (Information Literacy I think) in addition to the English credit which can't be CLEPped, but the theory still works.

    If you try the concept in another school (TESC for example) you run into the issue of not using the GRE subject test- that's a road block. You have to take an additional 6 exams +/- to make up for that.

    While I couldn't test out of classes at that pace, I accept that it can be done. I "only" tested out of my gen eds, but it cut my entire degree time down to 18 months instead of 4 (or 5.6) years.
