Class Status

A student's class status (freshman, sophomore, etc.) is determined by the number of credits the student has completed. Class status is important for several reasons. For example, a course may have a minimum class status as a prerequisite.

The class status of a Computer Science major at Villanova is determined by the following credit thresholds:

Class Status Number of Credits
Freshman 0 - 33
Sophomore 34 - 63
Junior 64 - 95
Senior 96 or more
