Year-to-Date (YTD) Credits

Plan to complete at least 30 credits of coursework each calendar year.

Plan Wisely to Complete Your Degree

Students have a stewardship for the sacred resources the Church allocates to provide their education. One way students can be wise stewards is to complete their degree in a timely manner, ensuring that resources are available to as many future students as possible. With this in mind, BYU–Idaho encourages students to successfully complete at least 30 credits toward their degree each calendar year they are enrolled. By completing at least 30 credits each year of enrollment students will graduate in four years for a Bachelor’s degree and two years for an Associate’s degree. Keeping track of your year-to-date credits will help you finish your degree on the right track.

Year-to-Date Credits Formula
The “credits earned this year” value represents the number of credits you have earned so far in the current calendar year plus the number of credits you are currently registered for in the current term (registered credits for terms that have not yet begun are not included). Use this formula to determine your YTD credits:

YEAR-TO-DATE EARNED CREDITS + CURRENT CREDITS = CREDITS EARNED THIS YEAR
