    Hi, after i graduate from SNHU i see that they offer a Masters in psychology that has a completion in 15 months. are there any other colleges online that offer a masters in psychology around the same amount of time for completion?

    SNHU MS in Psychology:

    10 week classes
    12 courses
    $1881 per course
    15 month completion time if classes are taken 2 at a time. 30 months if taken 1 at a time.

    Baptist Bible College and Seminary MA in Counseling
    8 week classes
    10 courses
    $1020 per course
    12 month completion if classes are taken 2 at a time. 24 months if taken 1 at a time.
    All courses transfer to the MS in Counseling which meets eligibility for licensure

    I am enrolling for the March start date.

    I take 2 classes now so that's not a problem. Are there other masters in psychology or counseling that take 12 months? i mostly plan on serving on boards and advocating for children with disabilities and abuse like myself so having my degrees will help me. I'm in SNHU B.A psychology program but financial aid wouldn't cover 3 classes to finish sooner

    Liberty University offers a 30 hour MA in Human Services Counseling with a number of concentrations. It can be done in 12 months if you take 2 at a time. Still, Baptist Bible College and Seminary is the better program IMO. It offers more flexibility, is less expensive and leaves the door open for licensure.

    The major at Texas (12 courses) can be done in a year if you take 2 at once. You would still need the other 90 hours or so. As I indicated on your other thread, if you want to speed up the BA you will need to supplement the courses with equivalency exams. No BA can be completed in its entirety in 12 months without significant transer credit, portfolio assessment credit, etc.

    Are there any B.A psychology that are 2 years online?

    A typical BA consists of about 40 classes or so (120 semester hours). In order to do it in 2 years you would have to take 20 courses a year. I am unaware of any program that moves anywhere close to that fast. You are going to have to be more patient or get creative with equivalency exams.
