I finished 42 credits in about 11 weeks and was seriously upset I waited to start the capstone until after I finished all those credits. I wrote the entire 80+ page paper in less than 2 weeks and spent the equivalent of another 2 weeks polishing it off. And I wrote 40 pages of another paper on top of that in the same amount of time because I wasn't sure which topic I wanted to pursue. It was so frustrating to have to wait to submit the modules two weeks apart when I had all of them finished so early in the course. I got 100% on the paper too...so not like I was trying to achieve the bare minimum. I was also enrolled in a full-time master's level advanced translation program that required about 15 hours of homework per week outside of class. So its doable. I would encourage him to go for it and worse case scenario is that if he doesn't get finished he can get approved for the next graduation date and he'll have his capstone out of the way long before that date.
You sound like you're made of the same cloth my husband is. He's already aiming to sign up for his capstone immediately so hopefully he won't run into the same waiting issue.

Eventually i just did forgot a password on the site and found out i was actually accepted 3 days from submitting my application. I opened a ticket to make sure i was 100% accepted and they said yea i was already accepted. I sent in my transcripts after from ACE using the email method.
Which capstone format are you guys going for GS or Online?
Thanks for the heads up Bear! I'll let him know to try that tonight, maybe he can sign up for Capstone this evening or tomorrow! As far as format goes, I think he's intending on doing online. I'll likely do that too when it's my turn. It's not like forum chatting is foreign to me ;-)
