You need 120 credits to graduate, so that averages 15 per semester for 4 years. Taking 2 sciences will not force you to take more credits later: you should have room in your schedule for your SAS core courses, your business requirements, and a few extra classes of your choosing. If you plan carefully you should have room to do a minor (usually 6 courses or 18 credits required) if you want to. Or just fill in credits with classes that interest you.

If you only have 12 credits this semester (you have no AP credits?) you will have to take another 3 credits somewhere, either during the summer or in addition to those 15 credits you must take each semester to be on track to graduate on time.

If you don’t want to be at school during the summer, online classes are an option. My son satisfied an Expos 2 requirement by taking an online summer course through Rutgers. It was a lot of work but he did it all from home. (It wasn’t cheap though, maybe ~ $1200)
