What is the time commitment required for each course?

Outlier students have the option of enrolling in a 14 week standard length course or a 7 week accelerated course.

A 14 week standard course has an estimated 10-20 hours/week time commitment, between watching the recorded lectures, using the Active Learning (interactive textbook), completing practice sets to test your learning, and taking the section quiz.

The 7 week accelerated courses move at a rapid pace! We estimate that the time commitment required for an accelerated course is closer to 20-30 hours/week.
