What does a capstone entail?

So it sounds like you are allowed to work ahead and complete early?
With ASU, you were restricted to the weekly agenda and could only finish that week's work early but then had to wait until the next Tuesday before they opened up the next week's deliverables.

Well, you can work ahead once you have the syllabus since you won't know all the details until then. That is usually delivered the Friday before class starts. But you can start reading the textbook and taking notes ahead of time. That is what I did.

You can also work ahead on the case studies. However, that doesn't mean that your teacher will grade the papers before the due date. In my experience it didn't really matter how far ahead I turned things in, they still got graded at the same time as everyone else.

You could also do the forum posts early, but it didn't really offer much value since you still had to reply to the other student's posts during a specific window so it didn't really offer much of an advantage.
