Frequently Asked Questions

How many hours per week should I spend in class?

A typical full-time student with 15 credit hours spends about 15 hours per week in class. Combined with 2 hours of study per credit hour, that's about 45 hours per week of academic commitment.

Is it better to have classes spread out or condensed?

It depends on your learning style. Spread-out schedules allow recovery time between classes, while condensed schedules give you full free days for studying or working.
