Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Since many of the students are planning to graduate in 3 years, through the ReImagine program, there are new classes every 8 weeks. This new system can be challenging for students who are taking 18 credits per semester. The workload is hard, but definitely doable.
