How many credits should a full-time student be registered in?
Full-time undergraduate students normally take an academic load of 12 to 15 credit hours in the fall and spring semesters, seven in the summer, and four in the winter. Permission to exceed the full academic load , up to 21 credits in the fall and spring and nine in the summer, is based on the student’s academic record, and the recommendation of the academic advisor and registrar. Students will be charged for each extra credit.
