How many credit hours should you take?

That's an important question! Enrolling in a three-credit-hour class means you'll be IN CLASS for approximately three hours per week.

But remember, in order to be successful you'll need two hours of study time each week for every credit hour you take. In other words, that three-credit-hour class is actually going to take up nine total hours of your time each week.
