Getting a Bachelors Degree in one year might seem impossible, but it is not. There are certain key factors that will help you complete your degree in one year and save money.

Follow these steps to get your college degree in one year:

STEP 1
First,  speak with the main college office and complete life experience forms; the college will request some evidence that you genuinely have life experience from work or your own life to get credits for certain courses. Myself, I have a computer networking background and was able to earn credit for several networking courses. That saved me $1200 due to the fact that I did not have to complete the course in a class. You can use the money you save to take additional classes and pay for college textbooks.

STEP 2
Take CLEP tests to pass the 100 level classes to save time as well, the tests are moderately difficult and does cost money, but not as much as a complete course. If you have some type of military background , transferring credits from your military development can be done through a program called Smart Transcript.

STEP 3
If you also completed certifications, they sometimes can be used to get college credits, but you need a solid foundation on the topic and need to prove that you use the subject daily . This will help save lots of tuition money and college textbook costs, not to mention lower the amount of time you have to complete your bachelors degree.

STEP 4
Have a plan and follow it. Map out a goal of when you will finish your college degree based on the leftover courses in your degree . This will help you gauge where you are at clearly and understand how any courses you have left to get your degree.
