Overloads

No student may be registered to take more than four credits of coursework in any three-week session. Students can consult with the Associate Academic Deans for permission to combine coursework at other institutions with an experience in the three-week session.

Students must submit a petition to the registrar requesting permission to overload under the following circumstances: the student wishes to take more than

  • 18 credits in a 14-week semester
  • 4 credits during a 3-week session 
  • 12 total credits  during the Summer (8-weeks) 
  • 8 credits during a 4-week summer session.              

The petition must include the approval signature of the student’s advisor and an Associate Academic Dean.
