Purdue Global BSIT internship instead of capstone?

[LevelUP]

You said you want fast?  I'm not sure if playing games with Purdue about the Internship is going to be a fast way to go. You're welcome to try.

I've assembled a degree plan already, inspired by the Ridiculously Easy Associates Degree - Purdue University Global thread, so that's not a problem. I already took the classes at Sophia (including the composition classes), and moving onto the rest. 

I'm not trying to play games with the university, I was genuinely interested if anyone has went this way, and managed to have their day job count as the internship.

What I mean by playing games is doing a bunch of back and forths with Purdue all in an effort to save what?  For all, you know it only takes 2 weeks to do the Capstone.

Back and forth such as on the phone talking to this person and that person, let me transfer to this person.  Now, wait till your term starts so we can talk to this person.  Now send me info about your job, nope not quite my tempo, send me more information, nope not quite my tempo.  Great now I see all you have left is the Capstone, now we can finally accept your internship but it looks like your need to do yet another term to meet the minimum 3-month requirement for your internship.  (3 months later) Oops, something went wrong, we can't accept the internship.  Now do the capstone, hurry your term is ending soon.

Hehe, just dramatization but I know how these schools love to play games.  I doubt it's going to be a straightforward process. GL
