Honestly that sounds like a perfect doctorate for a HBCU.

This will be a $5000 per semester degree. It will take 4 semesters to complete.
The degree will be in Leadership. The exact type is unknown still. I'm hoping for a PhD, DBA, or DLead.

That's very, very fast for a doctorate. Some will say too fast.

Isn't the PhD outside of the scope of TRACS, or has that changed?

Isn't the PhD outside of the scope of TRACS, or has that changed? Two years is normal for fast doctorates. Cumberlands is 2 years, most universities are around 2 years. 4 semesters = 2 years. VUL just hpapens to have 3 semesters in a year if you do summer.
TRACS does have one PhD. https://ogs.edu/degrees/doctor-of-philosophy-dphil/ This was their first one.

Two years is not unprecedented, but it's not normal. And Cumberlands is only two years if you transfer in a year's worth of doctoral level coursework and double up on the remaining coursework.
Good to know that TRACS's scope now includes the PhD.

Isn't the PhD outside of the scope of TRACS, or has that changed? ...most universities are around 2 years. I don't want to quibble but I don't think that this is even close to being true. Even universities that require a Masters for admission to a Doctoral program are rarely completed in only 2 years.

Okay let me correct myself than. Most universities that we discuss here on internet forums usually have a way to do it in 2 years.
Most of us are on this forum to get a degree online/accelerate.
Most 4+ year programs are brick and mortar. Many online programs I found for MA's are 1 year, in person 2 years.
One of the big differences of online schools is that we don't take summers off online, wharas a lot of brick and mortar does.,
