Also if someone takes a Year off from school but is only in their 4th Year of actual schooling then they are generally not considered "Super Seniors"- even if they may be 5 or more years out of High School- I'm thinking maybe that should be addressed. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/76.98.40.217|76.98.40.217]] ([[User talk:76.98.40.217|talk]]) 23:13, 15 April 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

There's a related term in collateralized debt obligations in part responsible for the downfall of AIG, who mispriced them - see http://www.marketwatch.com/news/story/aig-execs-say-super-senior/story.aspx?guid={6A12F8EA-7D5B-4978-A8BA-33944DE992F8}

If there's going to be a page on super senior collateralized debt obligations it'll need to disambiguate here.

Poor Choice of Classes

I'm tempted to add poor counselor/adviser advice under the poor choice of classes section, but I have no citation save seeing my friends get screwed over back in the day. That said, this article doesn't have many citations at all. I also have a moral dilemma about putting up that bit, because most advisers do know what they're doing and I don't want to scare current students into poor choices. 49giantsharks (talk) 18:51, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Added 5 Year Programs and Community College Transfers Subsections under Causes

I have added Subsections on 5 Year Programs and Community College Transfers under Causes since it dosen't seem that anyone has addressed them yet.

Also if someone takes a Year off from school but is only in their 4th Year of actual schooling then they are generally not considered "Super Seniors"- even if they may be 5 or more years out of High School (that is sometimes true with Co-Ops as well)- I'm thinking maybe that should be addressed. Usually "Super Senior" status doesn't kick in until some is in their 9th Semester (if it is a 2 semester per year college otherwise adjust accordingly) of taking classes or later—Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.98.40.217 (talk) 23:13, 15 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
