What are Accelerated Degrees?
Accelerated
or Two-year degrees are degree courses that take two years to complete rather
than the usual three or four years. In such a fast-tracked course, you would
cover the same content and get the same qualification at the end as you would
on a three or four year course. One of the biggest talking point are the
tuition fees. These would be less than a three-year course, making two-year
courses technically cheaper. You would also save money by not having to pay for
a third year of living costs.
Accelerated Degrees: Pros and Cons
Pros
Getting your degree and going back to work sooner - hopefully earning a little more as a result of qualifying - will make a big difference.
Cons
What students say about two-year degrees?
Samantha (Communication, Media and Journalism student): 'I have never been a fan of standard three-year degrees, because of the cost, holiday and lack of contact time, but then again, I knew I needed a degree. When I found out about two-year degrees I was relieved, because I knew I would get out to work quicker than my peers, and it would truly test my abilities in the best way possible. And I'd save some money!'
Henry (English Literature with Journalism student): 'Works out cheaper in every aspect.'
