I think you can try and complete it in a term of 6 months. It'll be a bit easier than trying to complete the UMPI MAOL in four sessions (2 terms) for about the same price point...
Thanks bjcheung!
My concentration at UMPI was Management & Leadership so I was hoping to accelerate through this since it's also in Management & Leadership. I just can't help but think I might be missing out and maybe should venture on a different path. When my enrollment counselor asked me what my goal was after I complete the program, I was at a loss for words. I really don't know and I feel like my choice is only based on the fact that it might be faster for me to complete. I'm having a total FOMO moment.
After sifting through their programs, I might be interested in the Learning Experience Design and Educational Technology Master's just because the whole journey of competency based learning virtually has been really interesting. On another hand, I minored in MIS and I see that they have a Master's Degree in IT Management and I'd love to break into that field. However, I don't have any professional experience working in IT and it might be difficult for me to find a job but more importantly, I'm afraid that I might struggle with the program. And if I do switch programs, will it affect any of the scholarships that I applied for? I haven't been awarded any but just in case. I guess starting in July has kind of worked out.
Don't get me wrong, I'm very grateful that I'm even in this position to be contemplating this. Just a year ago I never would have imagined even typing this.

I think no matter what, I'm going to keep moving forward. If nothing else pans out, I'll stick with MSML.
