Student Classification

The freshman class of VC is composed of both beginning freshman (students who have never enrolled in college before) and freshman (students who have earned less than 30 semester hours of college credit). A sophomore is a student who has completed at least 30 but less than 72 semester hours and has not earned an associate degree. The unclassified category is for the student with 72 or more hours who has not earned an associate degree. The remaining two classifications are associate degree and baccalaureate or above, which are both self-explanatory. 

A full-time student is one enrolled for twelve (12) or more credit hours in a standard academic semester.
