Advice on Course Taking Patterns

The projected course schedule is designed so that a student who enters the program can graduate in 2 1/2 years by taking one course during each of the Fall and Spring semesters and 2 courses in the summer. Always enroll in a core class when it is offered if you have not already taken the course. If you do not follow this pattern, it could take longer than 2 1/2 years to graduate given the current course offerings.
