Make sure to check out my Udemy course, where I go more in-depth on the inner workings of college, from how college degrees are structured to how you can make the most of them based off your own personal learning style. College 101: How to Navigate College teaches students about credits, degree plans, how to calculate their GPA, learning styles, how to maximize their degree plans, and more. This would be good to send out to the first year students. Here is the link:

Hey, I'm looking for studying business analytics in UTD, I'm unable to understand the credit system and also how to calculate tuition expenses based on credit hours.
You need to make an appointment with a transfer credit counselor so they can review exactly which courses you need to take, which courses you have already taken that you can get credit for, and the remaining cost of the rest of the courses. Be prepared for that meeting with the degree plan of business analytics and your unofficial transcript
I take 240 UK credit hours for completing AHND, how many hours I need to finish it in fasttrack program or less than 1 year?
You should ask your academic advisor at your school because I can't answer that specific of a question. My academic experience is in the US, not the UK, so the definition of credit hour may be slightly different.
If office workers has 40 hrs job per week how come a student should have 60hrs of workload.
This was developed when students in higher education were ages 18-22; unmarried; no kids, and all they did was college
Hi how does much 0.5 credit effects on my degree ( my teacher last season gave my 0.5 credit for GLE which i did need it bcz i already had 31 credits and i didn't complete the assignments and my point is 56 doest it effects on my degree? Can i retake it or erase it? Thanks.
You should ask your academic advisor this question. A half credit can still impact your degree technically. You might want to find a way to earn a half credit somehow so that it will total one complete credit. The registrar may or may not round up your total credits when it comes time to calculate your final degree audit.
Can you explain 30 credit hours for a 2 years master degree?
How is the 30 credit hours splited for a 2 years master degree?
A 2-year masters degree listed as 30 credits assumes you will be taking five 3-credit courses per year (15 credits) for 2 years, for a total of 30 credits.
At 0:56 did you misspeak? "So the three hours of outside classroom work". That doesn't help when someone is trying to understand something.
Hours of outside classroom work could also include working with a tutor to understand the material, meeting with a study group to compare answers or work on an assignment, meeting with the instructor or teaching assistant, or regular homework, reading the textbook, or studying for an exam. Students need to make individual decisions about how to best spend their time learning the material. Some students do learn better in a study group while others will learn better seeking individual help from a tutor.
So if a school says how much tuition is per credit hour how does that translate over taking 2,3 or 4 courses during a quarter or semester?
If a school charges $1,200 per credit hour, for example, a 3-credit course would cost you $3,600. Two 3-credit courses would cost you $7,200; Three 3-credit courses would cost you $10,800; and Four 3-credit courses would cost you $14,400. Remember there are probably also fees charged each semester for a student activity fee (or similar).
is 9 hours of homework for each hours of class work? witch is 3class work hours ×9 homework hours= 27+3 class work=30h a week?
or it s 9h for all of the 3 classwork hours
9 hours for all 3 of the in class hours
@@collegeconversations thank you so much i am just still canfuse about somthing so if a BS is 120 credits that means 15 each semester for a 4y program so 15credit is about 3h a week witch means 3hs of class work+ 9hs of homework = 12hs ÷ 3 ×15credits × 8semesters= 480h of work in total am i right? please answer me ❤❤❤
Credit hours= in class hours(learning)+ outside of class hours(homework, studying..etc)...right?
Yes. Time spent in class only (nothing outside of class) is referred to as “clock hours”
I don't understand, all students have to study for the same amount of time, 9 hours out of the classroom?? I think it is for the average student. Although research shows that on average students don't learn nearly as much
Nine hours of time spent on work for the class outside of time spent in actual class is the guideline. The 9 hours could be homework, studying for a quiz or test, working on a project, working in a lab, reading chapters in a textbook, or any other activity related to learning the material taught in that class. The 9 hours is a guideline for how long it should take the average student to complete the assignments for that week (3 hours per one hour of class time) so 9 hours for a 3 credit course.
thank you so much i am just still canfuse about somthing so if a BS is 120 credits that means 15 each semester for a 4y program so 15credit is about 3h a week witch means 3hs of class work+ 9hs of homework = 12hs ×15credits × 8semesters= 1440h of work in total am i right? please answer me ❤❤❤
It would be 12 hours of work for one class a week, so 12 x 5 classes = 60 hours a week x 15 weeks (length of semester) x 8 semesters = 7200 hours of work for a bachelor's degree
@@collegeconversations sorry but What does the word class refer to?
@@user-fz6nz3ww9m a 3-credit class that you are enrolled in, such as intro to psychology
@@collegeconversations can't thank you enough❣️❣️
@@user-fz6nz3ww9m you’re welcome!
So, a 3 credit course means you need to attend this course in class for 3 hours a week for the end of the semester, and you need to study these hours each week for 9 hours, 3 hours each. Do I get it?
Yes, you need to attend a 3-credit course for 3 hours each week (usually a 50 minute class 3 times a week or a 75 minute class 2 times a week) and then complete 9 hours of related course work, i.e. homework, studying for a quiz, practice sets, group work, studying for a test, etc.
@@collegeconversations Thank you!

If my bachelor degree is 120 hrs then does it means i have to take it in one year and for each yr i need 4×120=480 hr to get my BS Degree???
No, a bachelor's degree is typically 120 credit hours in TOTAL, which breaks down to enrolling in 15 credits worth of courses per semester, two semesters per academic year, and staying in college for 4 years. 30 credits per year x 4 years = 120 credits in total
