The Fast Track program is for highly motivated, goal oriented students who want to earn a degree in half the traditional time. The Fast Track option allows students to complete requirements in the Liberal Arts, Computer Science, or Business Degree plans. Two additional 4-week terms are offered in the summer sessions. Students have the flexibility to register in any of the sessions and classes are offered in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Fast Track and other accelerated term courses include the same content as the traditional length courses.
Students merely complete the competencies in less time.
Fast Track requires that students devote more time on task per week than in a traditional class. Students may move in and out of the Fast Track program or combine Fast Track with other options such as Flex classes or traditional classes. The courses offered in Fast Track are rotated to ensure availability of each course several times per year. Fast Track courses transfer to 4-year colleges and universities. St. Philip's seeks to meet the needs of the twenty-first century student population.
