…Some Math
December 30th, 2009(I just like this image. I don't think it has anything to do with this post.)
Now that I’m done with my first online semester at the Academy of Art University I decided to see when I would get out and that requires some math…Let’s go!
63 hours needed to graduate with my MFA
2 classes a regular semester and 2 classes for Summer (it’s been highly recommended that you only take 2 summer classes max!) That’s 6 classes a year at 3 units/ class = 18 units/hours
63/18 = 3.5 which means 3 years + one semester with 2 classes + one semester with 1 class. So it’s more like 3 2/3rds years. I already have 2 classes done I still have 3 years + one semester to go. That seems like a really long time.
Now if I take 3 courses during regular semesters and 2 courses during the summer = 8 classes/year =24units/hours. That takes it down to 2.625 years. Since I already have those 6 units I would be done at the end of the Spring Semester in 2012.
Now I just need to see if I can afford this.
