HOW FAST TRACK WORKS: > Tests are provided through intellipath™, CTU’s personalized learning system > Key concepts required to pass a typical 5½ week course are tested to demonstrate proficiency > Students must receive 70% pass rate to receive credit and have 5 hours to complete the test WHO QUALIFIES FOR FAST TRACK: > Students working toward Associate or Bachelor’s degree only > New Enrollees > Current Students *The ability to reduce time in school and/or reduce tuition depends on the number of Fast Track™ tests successfully passed. Fast Track™ program credits are unlikely to transfer. Not all programs eligible for 30% reduction in time and/or money. Courses eligible subject to change.
