15 to Degree 15 Credit hours x * Semesters (or 4 years) = 120 hours At UT, many degree programs are in the 120-124 credit hour range Taking 15 Credit hours each term rather than 12 credit hours: • Saves you about $9,200 in educational costs • Reduces your time to degree by one year (from 5 years to 4) At UT, the tuition rate is the same when taking between 12-18 credit hours per semester; taking 15 hours will not cost you any more in tuition than taking 12 hours UT Scholarships are designed to cover 8 semesters 8
