Does LSAC calculate up to degree or is there limit?

Post by top14dreamer » Mon Aug 04, 2014 3:46 pm

I just had a question:

I will graduate this Spring 2015. The minimum credit hours to earn a Bachelors degree at my school are 129 credit hours. However, because I have been in undergrad longer then 4 years, and having changed my major several times, I will have close to 200 credit hours when I graduate.

On the LSAC, grading procedures page, they say they calculate up to the Bachelors degree date. However, I have heard conflicting statements on here, like 120 (or 180 credits is the cutoff). Does LSAC calculate up to the Bachelors degree date or is there a credit hour limit and cutoff?

LSAC calculates up to degree date. If you have 200 credits when you graduate, the LSAC will calculate all 200 of them.
