Shane I don't think you receive nearly enough credit for the work you do on this channel. I've watched your videos the last 5 years I've been in college on and off. Thank you.

The best method for surpassing college the fastest is taking AP classes (you have to pass the exams), dual credit classes (through community college), IB exams, CLEP exams, high scores on the SAT or ACT, summer school classes. Please take advantage of these opportunities in highschool or K-12, because I definitely missed out, and have to take the standard course load at a community college then university, knock those generals out in highschool and get your Associates!!

Excellent videos as always, Shane. It would be interesting to hear your opinion on getting a degree (from trade to PhD) for the purpose to get a job in USA. Keep the good work!

I'm a huge fan of online-first education: I'm almost done with my MS in Computer Science from Georgia Tech completely online with a total cost of ~$8, 000. The idea of speedrunning a degree at any pace and testing-out of almost any class in a program makes me very skeptical. These programs seem too transactional to be considered equivalent to a 4-year education.

I'm glad these options exist for students and challenge the status-quo of accredited education, but I still wish "traditional" universities would add more affordable online programs to legitimize these nontraditional pathways.

It’s 3am and I’m working nights at my factory job. I’ve been here for the last 10 years. Thank you Shane and also shoutout to Josh for the insight on this school. You guys convinced me to get my degree in IT & start a career in Cybersecurity. I got married a couple months ago. I’ve had a realization that working swing shift for a factory isn’t what I want to build a family.

We have the same programs from different universities in the Philippines! It's actually enacted by our congress since the '90s. It's called ETEEAP - EXPANDED TERTIARY EDUCATION EQUIVALENCY ACCREDITATION PROGRAM. It basically measures your competencies and job experiences and converts it into college subject credits then the remaining subjects mostly major subjects those are the ones you needed to finish. In fact, once you graduate it's being recognized as the same diploma as the ones you've taken from traditional college. I'm also planning to enrol soon!

Do you think you could do a degree tier list on working adults going back to school?

[jtopsyde]

Take 5 classes (3 credits each) over the course of 4 semesters (which are 3 months each), pass all your classes, and boom, an AA degree in one year.

I’m 31 years old trying to get into college! I want to go for construction ! Is that possible?

[Metamine]

I wish I knew all of this before I started college

[DeeJayrams]

Explained it so well, even I can understand :)

[amandamiller]

Please make a video for international students who are not USA resident.

Can you make an updated spreadsheet with the finance degree in supply chain degree?

Hey! Shane, I know that this video is not related to this, but I was wondering if being a MRI tech is a good idea. I'm going to be a senior in high school and that interests me. What are your thoughts on that career? Thanks

[dragondaniel]

I've been wondering, Is this avaliable only for high-school graduates? Since where I live we have options to earn a bachelor's while still in high-school. The degree depends on how fast you complete it (as it is also online), But it's still something which might take 3 years, like a normal degree.
