Instant Sophomore Program

A student who earns a total of 30 credits through the Advanced Placement program, the International Baccalaureate program, the Excelsior College Examinations, the College-Level Examination Program, or a combination of these programs may become an instant sophomore. If a student earns fewer than the 30 credits needed for sophomore status, the credits will still be applied toward his or her degree. Thus, the student can still reduce the time needed to achieve his or her undergraduate degree by taking summer courses or a course overload during the academic year.
