How can I figure out my class standing in L&S?

Undergraduate students in the College of Letters & Science are classified by year according to the number of credits and grade points they have earned.  Students are classified as follows:

• Freshman Standing (Level): fewer than 24 credits
• Sophomore Standing (Level): at least 24 credits
• Junior Standing (Level): at least 54 credits 
• Senior Standing (Level): at least 86 credits
  

These credits must be in courses that count toward an L&S degree.  Advanced Placement (AP), College-Level Examination Program (CLEP), International Baccalaureate credits, credit by departmental examination, and retroactive credits (retrocredits) will count toward a student's class standing (level).

**Please note that a first-year student may have sophomore or higher classification based on the number of credits they have at the end of each term.  For example, a first-year student may have junior standing at the end of their first semester/term at UW-Madison if they finish the term with 54 or more degree credits.
