<p>“Getting an engineering degree in 3 years (no matter how much AP you bring in) is hard to the point that I know no one who has done it.”</p>
<p>I think it’s definitely doable, but it is highly dependent on what sort of AP credit you’ve brought in and what you’re majoring in. Some majors, like Mechanical Engineering, require such a large amount of credits that you’re realistically not going to be able to cut it short. Something like Computer Science can be done in three if you have the right number and right kind of AP credits (e.g. physics, calculus, most of the CLE stuff, etc.)</p>
<p>That said, you’re not going to be able to realistically double major with any engineering degree and still graduate on time, especially if you’re also taking an additional year off. You may be better off getting an undergraduate degree in engineering and then getting your masters in an ecclesiastical field (or the other way around, but that’s probably tougher).</p>
