FULL-TIME ACADEMIC LOAD AND OVERLOAD
Quantitative requirements of the several curricula vary. It is expected
that the student will pursue in any semester the number of hours
prescribed in the curriculum.
The normal full-time load is 12-16 credit hours per semester
or its equivalent (an exception will be made if the quantitative
requirements for the student’s curriculum exceed 16 semester hours).
Overloads –
Bonafide sophomores, juniors, and seniors may request
permission to overload if their cumulative grade point average (G.P.A.)
is 3.00 or above. The student is required to pay the per credit hour
rate for each credit over the maximum full-time academic load (ROTC not
counted). Approval to register for hours exceeding the maximum full-time
load must be obtained from the Vice President for Academic
Affairs/Provost through recommendation from the Department Chair, or
Academic Advisor. Under no circumstances will approval be granted for a
schedule in excess of twenty-two (22) credit hours per semester or nine
semester hours during the Summer Session. The normal full-time academic
load during the Summer Session is six (6) semester hours or two courses. |
