<p>A very good question…if it helps, I did find this on testudo by clicking on Fall 2012-13 registration guide, and scanning the document - it’s on the very bottom right corner of page 11…</p>
<p>Undergraduate Student
Classifications
Freshmen 1-29 semester hours
Sophomore 30-59 semester hours
Junior 60-89 semester hours
Senior 90+ semester hours</p>
<p>So, based on what plumazul had said about being a “super senior” in another thread, I seem to remember reference to it giving an advantage in being able to register early, thus increasing likelihood of getting desired classes at desired times. </p>
<p>It may or may not help you graduate early, depending on what the course requirements are for the degree you are seeking. I would ask your adviser when you go to orientation and sign up for classes…when you find out, please share!</p>
