Attendance in summer classes will be required to complete this degree in four years from the first date of enrollment in the VCCS program. **ENGL 370 is not guaranteed to be offered summer semester, so a re-ordering of courses may be necessary to ensure graduation within 2 years of enrollment at ODU.
