Aim High

Many students believe their GPA will suffer if they take a full course load, but that's not what happens for most students like you.

Make it Work For You

15 and 30 are the magic numbers.

If you fall short of 15 credits, take a summer or winter course to make up the difference. Just earn at least 30 credits each year to stay on track.
Everyone's 120 is different. Know yours.

You need 120 credits to wear that cap and gown. Learn your requirements, make a plan, and use DegreeWorks to track your progress.
