Program Completion Timeframes

Anoint the World University offers flexible, self-paced online learning designed to accommodate the needs of students in a variety of life stages and schedules. However, maximum time limits are established to ensure academic continuity and degree progress. The following are the standard timeframes for completing each academic program from the date of initial enrollment:

  • Associate degree – Must be completed within 2 years
  • Bachelor’s Degree – Must be completed within 3 years
  • Master’s Degree – Must be completed within 2 years
  • Doctoral Degree – Must be completed within 5 years
  • Ph.D. Degree – Must be completed within 7 years

PROGRAM EXTENSION POLICY

Students who are unable to complete their program within the designated timeframe may apply for a one-year extension prior to their program’s expiration date. If approved, a $500 extension fee will apply.
If the extension period expires without program completion, the student must reapply for admission and may be subject to new academic or financial requirements.

COURSE COMPLETION GUIDELINES

Anoint the World University (ATWU) courses are offered in an asynchronous, on-demand format, allowing students the flexibility to progress at a pace that aligns with their personal and professional obligations. While course syllabi include recommended timelines for completion, these serve as guidelines, not strict deadlines.

  • Each course must be completed within 6 months of the start date.
  • Students are encouraged to complete most undergraduate-level courses within 30 to 45 days, as outlined in the syllabus.
  • With consistent discipline, it is possible to complete a Bachelor-level course in 30 days or less.
  • Students may work faster or slower depending on availability, provided the 6-month maximum is not exceeded.

This flexible approach allows students to maintain balance while making steady academic progress. For optimal success, students are encouraged to set weekly goals in line with the suggested syllabus timelines.
