<p>You would start as a regular freshman. In the first few weeks of the semester the registrar goes through all the folders of incoming students and determines how much transfer credit you get. If you get a full year’s worth of it, you can apply to have your class standing adjusted. You can do that after a month or after two years, it doesn’t matter. (Well, your class standing does matter for traditions and housing but not so much for academics.)</p>
<p>You need at least 32 credits to graduate. Graduating early will limit the amount of electives you have. Ideally you would already have a pretty good idea of what you want to major in because you won’t have a lot of time to explore different fields. Definitely tell your adviser during custom’s week that you consider graduating early so that you can come up with a good plan to fulfill all your major and distribution requirements in three years. (If your major requires classes to be taken in a certain order, graduating early can be tricky.)</p>
