What about the rigor at this school???

Hmm, okay. I’ll take your word for it that four courses are rigorous enough, if you’ve never met anyone taking five courses. Thanks for the advice.

Also, from corranged’s link:

“Course Load. Students register for three or four courses per quarter. Over the typical four-year program (twelve quarters), a student normally registers for at least six four-course quarters and as many as six three-course quarters. Although students may progress at varying rates toward the degree, no student may register for more than fifteen quarters without the permission of the dean of students in the College.”

I suppose this also has to do with how many AP credits you have and the like. IIRC, 47 credits are needed to graduate, but of course, this number goes down if you have some AP credits. If you do the math, you’ll see how many credits you need per quarter if you want to graduate within 4 years. You’ll also need to factor in PE, which gives you credits but really doesn’t ‘count’ as a 4th class.
