I’m unsure of how to choose a reasonable workload. How much time should I expect to spend on university courses?
For every hour you spend in class, we suggest that you allocate two to three hours for study time outside of class. For courses during the fall/winter that meet for three hours a week, you should expect at least another 6-9 hours of outside of class study time on top of class time. That means for every course, you should count on approximately 12 hours per week per course after adding class time and study time together. Courses with additional requirements such as laboratories or tutorials will require additional time to this.
