<p>Well...? I'm not sure what I'm going to major in. I'd like to do Arabic, but they only have a minor in that. Possibly history, econ, asian studies, etc.</p>
<p>I'm doing Asian Studies (Chinese) and Economics. I actually just signed up for my courses yesterday, taking both of those. Can't wait until school starts!</p>
<p>through an exchange: Math & CS... btw, how many courses does one usually takes? (assuming each course is about 3 hours weekly), I had applied for 4 courses, should I apply for more?</p>
<p>they recommend that you take 15 credits if you want to graduate in four years. But if you have credit by AP,SATII, etc, then you could take 12 credits a semester to graduate on time.</p>
<p>Actually, I'm just there for a year or semester... I think I'm gonna take another course. my question is more about the number of courses than the number of hours, do most stuents enroll in 5 courses? (or more)</p>
<p>Credits depend more than the number of classes, because there isn't a set number of classes you have to take, but you do need at least 120 credits to graduate. But since they recommend 5 courses, then that's probably what most students enroll in. Why are you only there for a year (or less)?</p>
<p>I am from Israel, coming as part of an exchange program between my home university and UNC. I will stay for a semester or 2... here things are way different than in the states, about 95% (or more) of the students do not live in dorms, most just come for classes and go back home, so here there is almost no "social atmosphere". I don't want to get in a situation where I'm enrolled in "too few" classes and therefore will be bored or feel a bit isolated. On the other hand I do want to have a good time and not be to busy with school work too much...</p>
<p>Dan, I'm taking four classes for a total of 13 credit hours. I think the amount of time spent studying will actually be more dependent on your own work ethic than on the courses themselves.</p>
