FAQs

What’s my time commitment?

A general rule in college is that for every one credit hour you are enrolled in, you will spend approximately two to three hours outside of class studying. For example: 3 credit hours = 3 hours in class per week = 6-9 hours study/homework time

Full-time students enroll in 12-18 hours, part-time students enroll in 1-11 credit hours per semester. The course load that is best for you depends on your needs. Wildcat Scholars offers both full-time and part-time* schedules to best meet your needs. Speak with your Wildcat Advisor to learn which schedule will help you achieve your educational dreams sooner.
