[quote=Anonymous]There is nothing new or embarrassing about needing a 5th year to finish. I happened to change my major in my junior year and I wasn't going to have enough credits in mandatory areas for me to graduate with the degree. So I took a 5th year so that I could complete the required engineering credits needed to graduate with that degree. I know someone else who ended up failing a required course for graduation and had to retake it. He retook it and aced the course and ended up graduating with honors, but a semester late (he also ended up taking two courses he had always wanted to take, but never had the time to take, so he actually enjoyed his extra semester). There are a lot of reasons why people end up with a 5th year semester or full year, so no reason to be embarassed.[/quote]
