Students may vary their course load semester by semester, depending on their professional and personal demands. Full time status is defined as attempting 12 or more credits per semester; students attempting less than 12 credits per semester are considered part-time.
Students requesting to enroll in more than 17 credit hours in a single semester (but less than or equal to 21 credits) must have a GPA of at least 3.0 and must meet with their advisor prior to submission of the Credit Increase Request Form.
Change of course load may affect financial aid status; students should contact the Office of Financial Assistance for more information. Please see the Bursar’s website for more information about credit limits and costs.
