Let’s assume 15 credits per quarter.

15 credits x 3 quarters x 4 years = 180 credits
minimum credit required to graduate = 180 credits.

Nope, a student has exactly enough credits to graduate in 4 years.

That is not to mention that, in this day and age, a lot of students walk in with ~40 AP credits like you brought up. 4 years 3 classes has become very doable.

(In case you graduated many years ago, you should note that AP classes have become extremely commonplace and most UCLA students have at least 5 or 6.)
