UF IN 3 yrs... cause of AP Credits

<p>With AP credits I can eaisly graduate in 3 yrs....is this a good plan....is it advantageous....i have like 60 ap credits (which is like 2 years), but they only take 30 (1 year)...........i dont want to spend my first two years wasting my time doing stuff i already know...what do u think???</p>

<p>60 ap credits? thats 20 aps dude.
i have the same situation, but dual enrollment classes</p>

<p>its like 12 total..but some on some of the tests with 4s and 5s they give you like 6 and 8 credits</p>

<p>Just one thing...</p>

<p>"A maximum of 30 semester hours may be granted by combining AICE, AP, IB and CLEP credit."</p>

<p>Though you can get 60 credit hours through Dual Enrollment...</p>

<p>Yeah, I'll go in with 36 credits from AP classes- more than they're willing to accept. At least I'll get all of the general stuff out of the way?</p>

<p>Yeah it's capped at 30. You can still graduate in 3 years depending on your major.</p>

<p>If you are going to get Bright Futures and NMF money for 4 years, why graduate in 3 years? You can take classes that would be considered for a Masters at the undergraduate level--free. If you have so many credits, maybe you can graduate with 2 majors (better than one)---free. Professional schools are a different story and it would probably be better to do a 3 year pre-whatever.</p>

<p>Is a double major really as complicated as it sounds?</p>

<p>My plan: take ap credits in classes that don't matter for my major...
then, take 12 hrs for 8 semesters... that's 96 credits plus 30 is 126, more than the required amt to graduate... still get the 4 years in Gainesville, while having to do less work that everyone else :)</p>

<p>BF pays for up to 120 credits and you can apply for an extension to, I think, 132 credits.</p>
