Adding a degree program to the schedule of a working adult can be a daunting prospect.
Aside from work obligations that can spill beyond 40 hours per week, adults also have lives outside of work: families, hobbies, volunteerism, and other commitments. There are other considerations too; maybe they have gained significant work experience and knowledge in their field, so the thought of spending months relearning what they already know is frustrating, not to mention cost prohibitive.
That’s where FlexPath comes in. FlexPath at Capella University offers the potential to move quickly through familiar topics within the coursework, potentially saving time and money. Many working adults who have already experienced FlexPath have found it to be an ideal way to earn their degree. Here are the top 7 reasons FlexPath worked for them, and why it could work for you.
“Showing my kids that Mom can be successful is huge to me. Showing my kids that Mom can complete something, that she is special, that she works really hard – I wanted them to see all of that.”
Andrea*, FlexPath Graduate, BS in Business Administration
“FlexPath is a journey of experiencing new things, gaining knowledge, and really being able to show yourself and others that you know everything you need to know to be successful. It’s a journey that only you can take, and the good thing about FlexPath is that you’re in control of it.”
Bryan*, FlexPath Graduate, MS in Information Systems and Technology Management**
“FlexPath isn’t for everybody, but if you are able to stick to your own deadlines and if you like to work independently and at your own pace, this is absolutely the program for you. It really does do all the things that it promises.”
Jennifer*, FlexPath Graduate, MBA in Human Resource Management
“It’s such a great idea: Pay a flat rate and then based on what you know and what you’re capable of, you can get in as many courses as you can in that time.”
Adam**, FlexPath Graduate, BS in Business Administration
“My FlexPath MBA program reinforced my leadership skills. It’s given me more confidence and it’s made me more comfortable in not only what I know but how I can grow in the future. It’s that boost to your confidence that says, ‘I can do this. I did do this.’ I didn’t believe I could before I did my MBA and now I know I can. Huge difference.”
Mary Anne*, FlexPath Graduate, MBA
“There is plenty of support. You can reach out through phone calls or emails to your tutor, to your advisor, or to your instructor and ask them your questions or tell them where you’re stuck. They will help guide you through that process until you are comfortable, as many times as it takes.”

“I had the experience, I had the knowledge…but without the degree, I just couldn’t get the door open. Doors are opening all over the place now.”
