| May 5, 2018 at 17:33 | comment | added | Chris Cirefice | What about 7 years? I have a B.S. in computer science and a B.A. in French and Applied Linguistics. I don’t think I’ll have any problems entering graduate school (I’m currently teaching English in France). But, I have no idea since I haven’t applied and have just been doing freelance software development on the side for travel money. All in all I think that if you take a really long time to graduate, committees might question your motivation. But that’s not the case for you and I highly suggest you pace yourself. I was studying/working 80 hours per week for 5/7 years... major burnout. | |

| May 5, 2018 at 1:31 | comment | added | cactus_pardner | Good luck! My general sense is that 5 years for a BA/BS is easily acceptable by many programs and employers, especially if there's an obvious good reason for it (e.g. a double major, international study, internship, language classes--basically all the things you've mentioned). | |
