HEAR THE PASSAGE

 

Most students devote a great deal of thought and effort to the process of getting into college – getting out of college is something they think about later.  Four-year colleges in the United States have similar requirements for graduation.  There is, of course, a requirement that all tuition and fees be paid before the degree is granted.  Colleges also have a residency requirement:  Most of the courses that count toward graduation must be taken at the college granting the degree.  This means that students who want to transfer to another college should do so early, so they don’t have to take extra credits to fulfill the residency requirement.
