<p>I'm entering Rice with 35+ hours in AP credits. Some questions - </p>

<p>I've taken two years of AP Physics, and I know that I can get only six hours of credit. Do most physics majors take the six and start with 200-level courses or am I better off in taking Physics 101/102?</p>

<p>With 35 credits in hand, is it possible to graduate in three years - and by that I mean is it possible to get the right sequence of courses done in three years in a major like Physics?</p>

<p>If it's not, does Rice allow a student to pay something less than full tuition in a semester? So if I only needed to complete a couple of courses a semester in my fourth year, would Rice allow me to pay by the credit hour?</p>

<p>Just to answer your last question, yes you can be a part-time student. You have to get permission and then you pay per hour and pay a part-time registration fee.
