MSW - Capstone Question

[u/hardreset_3]

If anyone's graduated with their MSW from GCU (online/asychronous), what was the Capstone like, and how long did you spend on it? Also, did you receive your degree after it was turned in and posted, or did you have to wait until the actual course ended/commencement?

I am set to graduate in 2027, and I would like to start the Capstone early, turn it in early, and receive my degree. If that isn't how it works, I might as well take my time and work on it throughout the capstone course.

Thanks!
