Second Bachelor's Class Scheduling - Full Time

The following is an example of a full-time course schedule for a Second Bachelor's Degree student in the Eastern Michigan University Legal Assistant Studies Program.  This schedule assumes that the student begins taking required Program Courses in the Fall semester. 

The Program Coordinator is available to help students plan their course schedules.  However, it is each student's responsibility to conform his or her course scheduling to the Program Schedule.  Failure to do so will result in scheduling difficulties and delays in graduation.  Substitutions necessitated by a failure to appropriately schedule courses will be granted only under the most exceptional  circumstances.  Questions should be directed to the Program Coordinator.
