<p>if you're on quarters (4 per year, ~10 weeks each) then 3-4</p>

<p>if semesters, 4-6</p>

3

<p>Usually 3-4</p>

<p>At my school, if you take 4 each quarter, and don't change your major (at least too many times) you will graduate in 4 years.</p>

<p>At my school, if you take 3 per quarter and 4 a few times you'll graduate on time.</p>

<p>My school you need 4 to be a full-time student on the quarter system, though I think some will do 5 (though often one will be a softer, non-technical course).</p>

<p>is quarter system different than trimesters? i think they are the about the same amount of time, right? I'm just wondering because I go to a school on trimesters (there is no summer term, you take 3 classes a term and graduate on time) and am wondering how credits match up</p>

<p>4 is usually the magic number.</p>

9

<p>We need 120 total hours for most majors to graduate...</p>

<p>30 per year, 15 per semester, about 5 classes per semester...</p>

<p>Or take 2 summer classes, then 4 classes per normal semester.</p>
