<p>I have completed my first year and took summer courses. If i follow A normal path I am going to be left with taking (I got decent transfer credit and Summer courses)</p>

<p>Spring 2014:
CS 4104 Data and Algorithm Analysis
CS 4244 Internet Software Development<br>
CS 4254 Network Arch Prog
Credit: 9</p>

<p>Fall 2014
CS 4284 Systems & Networking Capstone<br>
CS 4504 Computer Organization
CS 4944 Seminar
Credit 7</p>

<p>This would make me graduate in 3.5 years with part time my last two semesters. Would it be possible to do this instead (i am talking about difficulty):</p>

<p>Spring 2014:

CS 4944 Seminar
Credit: 16</p>

<p>Did you take into account Technical Writing, Engineering Statistics and your 4xxx CS theory course? I can’t answer your original question but in general I’m not in favor of students attempting to graduate early unless there’s a good reason for doing so. Will you still be able to pursue internships? (Only next summer if you graduate in 3 years - - you would also expect to interview in the Fall for your permanent position).</p>
