I'm not referring at all to people who must work full time and go to night school or part time college.
I'm referring to those who spend more than eight semesters for only one major and degree and who do not need to work full time because they milked all the financial aid they could.
Personally, it took me eight semesters to finish, however, I didn't do it in a four year time span (since high school graduation) and I regret that. I had no excuse. Even though I finished a semester after most of my class, I was already behind a year or two in the job market. On my resume, I still like to put class of 2001, even though it was really December 2001. However, I had to march with 2002, since there was only one commencement each academic year, and people kept associating me with 2002.
