Degree Completion

ANTICIPATED DEGREE COMPLETION

There are 3 factors to consider on how long it will take to complete your degree:

  1. The total number of credits required to complete the degree (120 credits).
  2. The number of credits you are transferring or starting with.
  3. The number of credits you are planning to take during a calendar year.  Typically, a student will take 12 to 24 credits during a calendar year including the summer.

If you divide the number of credits you have remaining by the number of credits you are planning to take during an academic year, you will have a good estimate on how long it will take you to complete your degree.
