Full-time students are expected to complete the Undergraduate programs
at the
University of Maryland in four years. In order to graduate in four
years, students
must plan carefully in consultation with an academic advisor, declare a
major early,
and complete 30 credits each year, which is usually accomplished by
completing
a normal course load of 14 to 16 credits each semester and by completing
general
education and major requirements in a timely manner. Students who
change majors, who
declare a major late in the sophomore year, who enroll in a limited
number of select
programs, or who take advantage of certain special opportunities that
enrich the undergraduate
experience may require up to five years to complete a degree. All
students should develop and
regularly review a multi-year course plan for completing their intended
programs. If a student
has special circumstances that make it impossible to complete a normal
course load, the student
should meet with an advisor to discuss the circumstances, the student’s
plans for continued
progress toward a degree, and the implications for full-time enrollment.
