  • Creating a To Do List/Calendar
    Tip: Keep in mind all of your obligations when scheduling your classes (i.e. work, family, etc.). For every credit you take, plan on an hour a week in class and another 2-3 hours of reading and homework. 12 credits is considered full-time since its 12 hours a week in class + another 24-36 of homework. That's the equivalent of a full-time job!
