How to earn a Bachelors and or Masters degree in 2-3 months for free w/ no scholarships, grants, entrance exams/essays, and no Military slavery

[closedplatecel]

I've always said to learn to become a developer from a bootcamp, a book or for free on youtube or just do it yourself and build projects and these projects become your portfolio. There are many communities you can join as well. I took DApps university course and it took about 2 months. After learning blockchain developing then go learn different languages like Java, C++ and Python.

Before I got into blockchain I used my online degrees for jobs in the past. I've found that jobs really don't care at all what college you go to they just care that you have the piece of paper.

This thread was created for people who want to obtain their degrees as fast as possible and get a job. Certrain jobs won't even require or need any college at all so I'm not considering those jobs at all within this thread that's a completely separate topic.

Is that instant degree legit? I feel like they call me out if buy it even if I have the skills to back it up.

1.) Head Start type programs:

a.) Certain states offer Free College for kids in their sophomore year. You can literally take 2 years for free. I graduated with a degree before I obtained my HS diploma with the running start program in WA St. Now this only works if you're in HS but it dramatically decreases the amount of time it will take to obtain the B.S in half. Obviously you can stockpile as many AP courses in your Sophomore year and graduate even sooner.

painful for oldcels to read... no list or site to check for list of colleges which run this Head Start prog free?

I had chance at AP but fucked it up, feelsbadman

b.) Strategy:

• Take Full loads at least 20 credits per quarter: Full load is 15 credits but if most of your stuff is online it's fairly easy if you're a full time student pass all classes with good grades with 20 credits.
• Take summer courses
• Take CLEPS (more on this later) during break periods: Say you want to obtain your degree after just 4 quarters (fall, winter, spring, summer. You would graduate HS a year early basically at 17 years of age. Now you would be 10 credits short with this method. However, if you take 1 clep every off period that would give you 10 credits. Or you could take 15 credits per Q for regular classes for four quarters then take one 1-2 CLEPS every single break period. You can test out of 60 credits or 66% of your A.A.S. Essentially you save three years of your life with this method and earning an Associates at 17 years of age.

States that offer free tuition for HS students from their junior year and on. https://blog.collegevine.com/states-that-offer-tuition-free-college-programs/

oh you DID provide a link... any of this exist in Canada?

2.) College Level Examination Programs (CLEPS)

a.) These exams allow you to test out of 60 different courses for your bachelors with a pass fail grading system. They’re accepted by about 3,000 colleges. I have taken 10 of these courses. I remember 2 exams with just 2 weeks to prepare and passing both. These are mainly for the basic level stuff you don’t want to waste any time going to class for.

Sounds similar to those maturity recognition things they do for adult learners?

b.) How to earn free CLEPS with no military background

c.) So you can take the exam for free and your local library will most likely have the book and if they don't you can ask them to order it for you. Passing the exam only requires a 50/100. Scores don't affect your GPA you just receive pass or fail grade. If you fail you have to wait 30 days before taking it again. Normally prep time depending on the course takes anywhere from 1-3 weeks to pass the course.

what does CLEPS get you, a credential or something?

3.) ONLINE UNIVERSITY's: Although I went to a classical normal college and I did graduate with a Bachelors degree of science within one year and I thought at the time that was impressive. However, with online Universities with the way some are structured I soon found out one year is a long time. After I spent 8 years in the Military I finally decided to go back to school and obtain my M.S degree but I didn’t want to be forcded to take a 2 year program, a thesis or even a 1 year program. I wanted to see if something existed like the CLEPS program but for upper level degrees.

ease might depend on what degree, I dunno, what sorta BSc did you get and what jobs does it support?

a.) (WGU) this University has a quick process and transfer of credit evals without all the hassles of taking BS exams or essays. They allow you to test out of courses or write a paper to pass the course. their is a pre assessment test to start. Brush up on the areas you're weak then take the final exam. Some courses can be completed within a few days or completed on your first attempt in one day if there’s just one test. I earned my Masters in 2 weeks.You can earn a Bachelors if you already have an A.A.S in less than a month and your M.S degree in less than a month as well. Now this all depends on the type of degree you go for and your previous knowledge foundation but even if you're starting from scratch, you can easily test out of things by just focusing on your weaknesses.

How do employers feel about these unis tho?

4.) How to earn these degrees for free?

b.) Now who wants to write 20 plus applications and many letters and jump through tons of hoops and pray you're selected for tuition assistance or have to slave for the Military for 3 years to be eligible for free school? Nobody.

did you do military because you didn't know about alternatives at the time?

Why do that when you can work a cake job part time and be eligible for full benefits on your first damn day. Some companies offer this including Target who offers 10k of tuition per year and Starbucks will cover 100% of your online degree.. You could work literally just a 10 hour work week and qualify. You can do an easy job like warehouse associate and get paid decent starting at over $20 per hour depending on location then use a week or 2 of leave to pass as many courses as possible.

sounds useful, I recall those offers and never taking advantage o them and just getting pressured to work more hours =/

c.) You can have your entire degree covered for within one year since this school is so cheap. It's $129 per credit for upper grad for or 4.6k and $51 per credit for undergrad or 3k with an A.A.S or 6k with no credits at all. WGU costs

companies that pay your degree for you https://www.opploans.com/oppu/college-resources/tuition-reimbursement/#:~:text=No. 21: J.M. Smucker Company Amount: 100% of,to 100% tuition reimbursement for company-approved college courses.

Ways to have free tuition https://www.bankrate.com/loans/student-loans/ways-to-attend-college-for-free/#:~:text=1 Apply for grants and scholarships. There are,are dozens of online programs that are tuition-free.

That says grants/scholarships and you said these hints would not include those.

5.) Bypass Everything:

a.) If you're out of HS and have a good amount of experience but can't make those upper-level jobs because you have no degree well you can buy one LEGALLY. That's right I'm not talking about no fake degree bs where they put fake transcripts and copy a college certificate which sets you up for failure since your future job will find out it's fake once they call the college and find out you never attended. Insta degrees has been in business for over 2 decades now helping out people that either don't have the time, money or inclination to obtain a degree and are already experts in their craft but just need a degree to get over the hump. They offer over 100 degrees and this includes anything from a Bachelors to a Master’s degree to a doctorates degree. Now Iv'e used these in the past but they didn't land me the job they gave me an extra advantage like icing on the cake. The job never required accredation proof just my transcripts and or diploma was sufficient.

This really doesn’t help you to load up on a degree in a field you actually have no experience in or don’t enjoy doing or not good at in any way shape or form. If you somehow get hired for an engineer job you will most likely fail.

sounds like you'd just giet for generic "business studies" or "english" or whatev

I only recommend this for something you have some level of experience in and have a decent number of skills and enjoy it in some way shape or form. This is to help those who have been in their craft for 6+ years but can’t make it over into that 6 figures level because of a dumb piece of paper. An example would be you’ve run your own business successfully for 5 years but the covid shutdowns wiped you out. You believe you have the skills to be a CEO or Director for a major company but they won’t touch you since you have 0 degrees.

This is where I fail it, have shit experience and shit skills, no idea where to get them, all my jobs were low-skill just getting bossed around

Any links up for UK cels? Very useful & worthwhile thread OP & thanks.

Or just buy a fake degree. This guy was working in therapy/counseling for 20yrs+ using a fake degree and basic psychology. Shows you how bullshit that field of work is lol

I forgot to add in alternative options for those still in grade school and high school. It appears we're getting younger kids in these boards so I figured adding in this could be of benefit to them.

Basically, you can test out of any grade at any time or any age. Look up the testing requirements as they vary per state. I believe you can skip multiple grades at a time as I've seen pre teens graduate high school by just taking these tests.

Again, I do not recommend college for anything more as a backup plan. If you qant to make real money then your own business and investing are the only options at this point. Being wage slave is really only great for athletes, celebs or a CEO of a major corporation and even those do not technically require college.

This can give you a head start in life. If you're a young teen right , I'd test out of every grade asap and acquire a degree ASAP for as cheap as possible.
