 Return to: Graduation Planning Strategies (GPS) - Alphabetical
This Graduation Planning Strategy (GPS) outlines a sample three-year path to graduation and is valid for this catalog year only. This plan is a recommendation, and your actual program may vary. This suggested three-year graduation plan is not a substitute for regular academic advising appointments.
All undergraduate degree programs require at least 120 credit hours. To graduate in three years, students must earn an average of 15-18 credit hours per regular semester (fall and spring) and 6-12 credit hours in the summer semesters. Summer course offerings are limited, and students should plan carefully for summer classes with their academic advisor. The time it takes to complete a degree and the sequence in which courses are taken will depend on any credits transferred to WSU and placement in math and writing.
See the Academic Catalog for a complete listing of curriculum requirements, course prerequisites, and course descriptions. Course offerings and prerequisites are subject to change.
