For students who can\u2019t fit weekly class deadlines into their busy schedule, Capella University\u2019s FlexPath option may be an excellent fit. It offers students the opportunity to complete courses at their own pace.<\/p>\n<p>Students in FlexPath courses learn the same things as students in credit-hour-based courses. The assignments\u2014called authentic assessments\u2014are also the same. But FlexPath students work with Capella coaches\u00a0to establish their own personal schedule for learning\u2014focusing on competencies they need to develop and spending less time on topic areas in which they already have sufficient knowledge and ability.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/stgwww.capella.edu\/blogs\/cublog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2014\/09\/capella_flex-path-table.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1191 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/stgwww.capella.edu\/blogs\/cublog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2014\/09\/capella_flex-path-table.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"528\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stgwww.capella.edu\/blogs\/cublog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2014\/09\/capella_flex-path-table.jpg 660w, https:\/\/stgwww.capella.edu\/blogs\/cublog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2014\/09\/capella_flex-path-table-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/stgwww.capella.edu\/blogs\/cublog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2014\/09\/capella_flex-path-table-575x460.jpg 575w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 639px) 98vw, (max-width: 1199px) 64vw, 660px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Three more details to consider: The degree earned via FlexPath is the same as the equivalent degree earned in the GuidedPath option. However, FlexPath students\u00a0do not earn credits or grades. Instead, their transcripts outline the competencies they have mastered.* Also, tuition for FlexPath is flat rate rather than paid per credit, which may help you meet your budget, depending on your pace.<\/p>\n<p>Need flexibility?
