The above curriculum totals to about 125 hours of the 128 hours required for the degree.  Additionally, the advanced hours total to 31 hours of the 36 hours required.  Consequently a student needs to consider going to summer school or take heavier course loads to fulfill the requirements in four years.  Keeping in close contact with your advisor will help in selecting the summer school courses and the timing of these.  Also your advisor can help with course overloads.
