This fast-route-to-graduation is different than some legitimate college programs that allow students to graduate in less time than normal. According to Northeastern University, most legitimate accelerated degree programs are as much or more work than their traditional counterparts.

I really don’t trust those 529 plans – I don’t like giving the government any more money than I need to, and I think they can change the rules mid-game. I’m probably just being paranoid, but I feel safer knowing I have complete control over my own money.
