The typical load for a full-time student is 16 to 19 credit hours, which will result in normal progress toward graduation within two years. The minimum course load required to be classified as a regular full-time student is 12 semester hours.
A student will be permitted to take more than 19 semester hours only with the permission of the appropriate dean. Prior approval should be obtained by completing a Request for Overload Approval form available from the Office of Academic Programs or Office of Workforce and Economic Development. A student may take no more than 24 semester hours in any one term.
A student on academic probation is restricted to 13 semester hours. Students desiring to take more than 13 hours can submit a written request for an appeal to the Admissions and Academic Appeals Committee.
