As enrollment approaches, you should consider how to complete 30 credit hours in one academic year. By enrolling in a combination of fall, spring and summer classes, you can remain on track with your degree programs and potentially shorten the time it takes to earn your degree. Some studies show that completing 30 hours each academic year increases academic performance and decreases student debt. Speak with your academic advisor to develop an academic plan or run a degree audit in Degree Works. Visit the student success website
