Question - How many hours are required for a Clemson Ring


Nov 1, 2021, 11:49 PM

Could someone have a ring after only 2 semesters on campus ?

Thank you

Thank you sir...much appreciated.

A kid could come to Clemson with 60 hours or so in High School thru dual credits or AP and earn 30 hours their first two semesters at Clemson and be qualified for a ring.

Makes sense now

Thank you again

My daughter had 54 hours graduating HS through AP Courses and Dual Credit. Her Junior and Senior year, she had nothing but AP or Dual Credit Courses and even had 1 AP as a Freshman and 1 as a Sophomore

18 courses in high school counted towards college.

Accepted to Clemson Honors among others but chose a different path.

My daughter graduated with 36 hours and entered as a soph


Nov 2, 2021, 8:48 AM

Totally worth it. Her HS had only a few classes for her to take in her Jr and Sr year. Now she is double majoring.

cheating. Sure wish we had those options back when I was in high school. I used to think that we had a very good high school curriculum wise, until I got to Clemson. Then, I found that those first Calculus courses that were killing me had already been seen by some of my contemporaries, in HIGH SCHOOL! I immediately had the depress. :)

I'm with you 76! All of my math classes at Clemson were grueling.

Me too


Nov 2, 2021, 7:36 PM [ in reply to As an old fawrt, I can say that is so good it's almost like ]

caused me to change from ChemE to FM. Clemson calculus and high school calculus are two entirely different animals!

I don't regret it though. I've done really well and would have been an awful engineer.

My wife (also a tiger) entered college with 77 credits (also a valedictorian). Magnet school AP and CC credits. Did summer school CC work too. Had 93 by the spring freshman semester (so before she turned 19). Still took 4 years mostly because of double majoring and major-required course.... and just doing the college thing. I forget how many credits she ended up with, likely over 200. Then did the masters but called it quits after seeing my PhD headache. But ultimately I have more total credits (368). I was smart enough to know to get an education but not smart enough to know when to stop.

She is smarter and has never made a B in her life. Only "A's". I collected them all. I was smart enough to know to get an education but not smart enough to know when to stop.

My how times have changed. In the 60's you needed 144 credit hours to graduate for most degrees and no high school credits were allowed. I needed 144 hours and another 6 for advanced ROTC. The motivation to graduate on time wasn't the cost but keeping out of The Draft until graduation.

Anybody can have one from 2015 ACC Championship for a little money, I’d love to have one of these for display.

Somebody should buy this to give back to the Vann later.
Vann Smith’s ring, he would have been a nfl player had he stayed another year, he was very talented.

Now now, don't be that condescending guy. I don't know


Nov 2, 2021, 9:10 AM

about Wofford, but I do remember being a "Furman Scholar" while I was in high school. That just meant you got a free organized trip to Furman by virtue of being one of the top scorers on the PSAT as juniors. Of course, at the "Furman Scholar Fair", they would lobby you to attend Furman.

Myself, I looked around Furman while I was on that trip, and said to myself: "Self, there looks to be WAY too much studying going on around here. We need to steer clear of Furman as a college choice!" :)

Someone said 90 hours before. That is totally dependent on


Nov 2, 2021, 7:55 AM

what their MAJOR is. Most undergrad programs back when I graduated were at least 120 hours for a BA, and many more for a BS. Chem E at the time was 144 hours, I squeaked in there with 145. And that was with NO credits transferred from my high school curriculum, we had barely even heard rumors of such stuff at my high school in 1972.

You know, the one where I had to walk 50 miles uphill both ways to and from classes? :)

I don't care what anyone says, 144 hrs in four years is a LOAD. Could be why it took me 4 and several summer sessions to do it. Co-op Program was just getting started back then. I would HIGHLY recommend it now. The few we had, had companies knocking down their doors offering them jobs upon graduation, because they knew those co-ops already knew the ropes in industry.

You're a Chem E? Wow. I started in that and didnt last very long before I went to business majors.

badge-donor-05yr.jpgringofhonor-74tiger.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I distinctly remember sitting in freshmen Chemistry class.


Nov 2, 2021, 8:45 AM

There were ~125 people who started out as freshmen in 1972 in Chem E. They had special freshmen Chemistry classes just for Chem E majors. I vividly remember the professor saying, that very first day:

"Look around you. Look to the front, rear, left and right. Because at the end of these next four years, you will be the only one of those five people still left as a Clem E."

He was absolutely right on. Of the original 125, 25 of us made it to the finish line. (26 actually graduated in 1976, because we picked up a straggler from the 1971 freshman class.)

I always say now that I WAS a Chem E. I boxed up those brain cells and sent them away the day I retired for good three years ago!

People. The OP didn’t ask how many credits to graduate. He asked how many to qualify for a ring…nobody is graduating with 90 hours.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

You are absolutely correct. Although, I can't see why anyone


Nov 2, 2021, 9:36 AM

would shell out the significant shekels it costs to buy a Clemson ring if they were not a graduate of same. (I'm talking the ~$1240 version of the Ring, not the bare, stripped down Pinto version.)

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


It was 144 for me as well. Took two lit courses in summers

back home and the other 138 in 4 great years at CU.
