The requirements of 84 course credits usually dictate that a student attend one or more Summer Sessions. Upon demonstrating that attending Summer Session would pose a considerable hardship, a part-time student may be permitted to enroll in a ninth regular term, thus requiring four and one-half years to complete the program.
