College students: Take an extra quarter?

[onlyCOpunk]

Take your time. No point rushing out of University as you will miss it once it's over.

I would want to graduate on time...but I can't say anything since I opted to take two more years for grad school. If you're not going to learn any more (not going to take electives to learn more useful stuff) graduate now and get it over with.

No, but I go to private school. Paying for an extra semester is not an option.

I plan to stay an extra year and dual-Major, take more classes that interest me, maybe study abroad, drink more, sleep more. I'm in no rush to head to grad school.

 

[ArmchairAthlete]

Three classes? That's nothing... 4 should be easy even with the job.

 

[LtPage1]

No. A regular courseload is too easy enough as it is- I'm graduating a quarter early to avoid this situation.

Of course, if you're a hard science/engineering major, then I'd say an extra quarter isn't enough.

 

[Imdmn04]

an extra quarter of school is an extra quarter of tuition, and an extra quarter of lost wage, which can amount to 15k if u are doing engineering

It must be different for you guys, but at my school I pay so much per class I take. If I take less classes, my tuition drops. I think.

I'm working 30 hours a week and have 22 credit hours in my last semester at school. Glad I did it too. Keep in mind though, don't expect to get all A's doing this. I wasn't planning on getting A's though, just graduating.

I've overloaded for the past two years. That must be why I never get sleep...
