It would be foolish to finish college in two and a half years when the college is paying for it. Also, why would you shorten the college experience? For what? You lose out on friendships, trips together, dating, cultural events, more learning...These years are never coming back.
My kid is going to graduate with a double major, three plum internships, one research paper and a job that is getting him a fat paycheck. Pa Dam Dishoom, Bloody!!
What if you’re autistic?
Are you?

Then I guess graduating early is fine. Most people aren’t autistic though.

She went to summer school and took an extra class or two each semester and graduated in three years. She wanted the leftover money. She bought a house (not a condo) in her 20's. Props to her!
Cool story M3gan…
Ufff...but parents divorced. Poor Me3gan!

Most American college students are so dumb majority of them graduate in 5 to 6 years.
Most dumb UMC college students still graduate in 4 years.
Money certainly matters more than intelligence when it comes to success.
Both of them only get you so far. Work ethic is what matters most.
