Program Length
A student who enters a program of study as Program Ready and who takes 15 credit hours per semester can typically finish a program of study in the following number of semesters:
Associate Degree: Four semesters
Diploma: Three semesters
Certificate: Two semesters
However, students should always confer with their advisor to plan their semesters carefully to ensure they are sequencing their courses correctly.
Note: Due to accrediting or licensure issues, some programs require more semesters than the norm.
