The amount of time needed to be successful in a college level course will vary based on the course, rigor, and each student’s ability. On average, students can expect to spend 6 hours per every 1-credit hour in which they are enrolled. For a 3-credit class, an expectation would be to spend up to 18 hours per week on the course.
