Can You Really Graduate Faster? Absolutely! WGU created competency-based degree programs specifically to make it possible for people to earn an accredited degree faster. How does it work? Our competency-based courses focus on what you learn, not how fast you learn—as soon as you demonstrate mastery of a subject, you move on. That means if you have past college or work experience, or are able to dedicate extra time to your studies, you really could graduate faster. See how one student earned two WGU degrees in record time.
