How many credit hours are needed to become a senior in college and what are the number of credit hours needed for each classification such as freshman sophmore junior senior?

Answer

STUDENT CLASSIFICATION
A student's year (freshman, sophomore, junior, senior) is based on the number of earned credit hours. Students with 27 or fewer credits earned toward the degree will be classified as freshmen; those with 28 to 59 credits will be classified as sophomores; those with 60 to 89 credits will be classified as juniors; and those with 90 or more credits will be classified as seniors.

Th above is an approximate number of credits particular to each classification. It really depends on the college or university. Still, the number would be very close. Remember the above is based on a college or university that operates of a regular two semester academic year. Those that operate on a tri-semester or quarter-semester would be quite different.
