<p>Possibly, but it depends on your major.</p>

<p>To graduate from MIT, you need to do three major things:

  1. Complete the General Institute Requirements (GIRs)
  2. Complete all the courses required for a major
  3. Take at least 180 units outside the GIRs</p>

<p>For some majors, completing all the courses required for the major will give you 180 units or more outside the GIRs. Other majors have more space for electives.</p>

<p>The way the graduation requirements are set up, if you take all 17 GIRs at MIT, you need to take four classes per semester for eight semesters. If you want to graduate early, you need to take more than four classes per semester for several semesters and/or have credit for several GIRs coming in.</p>
