LOL, Hermod...that was my first observation of the oddities of the collegiate system.


12 credit hours has been the 'norm' for minimum full time status since the early 80s at least...but everyone I know who made it in four years went wild with 16-20 per...and STILL always had 'one more' class to take at the end of their run.

But the costs are determined using that 12 hour benchmark...so the odds are stacked against anyone who has to work during their college years to get by.


There is WAY more to this story...
