What is the Fast Track BGS Degree Completion Program?

The Fast Track Bachelor of General Studies (BGS) Degree Completion Program is for busy individuals who are at least 25 years old and who already have 60 or more prior college credits. The Fast Track is the quickest, most efficient way for most people to finish their bachelor's degree.

Students in the Fast Track transfer in their prior courses (no matter how long ago they took them), take a "core" of suggested courses through Eastern, and works with our advisors to find efficient and cost effective ways to complete the remaining credits needed to reach 120 semester credit hours required for the bachelor's degree.

Students who enter the program with 60 or more prior credits can expect to graduate in two years or less! Students in the Fast Track, take 10-14 "core" courses in 7-week blocks, two nights per week or on Saturday mornings. Students concentrate on only one course at a time.

Students are encouraged to earn elective credits via CLEP or DSST tests, through Eastern's Credit for Lifelong Learning program or by transferring additional credits.
