How many total credits may I earn for research, internship, or independent study?
You may earn up to 6 credits of “independent work” per academic year. The academic year begins in the summer and a student can register for up to 3 credits of independent work in the summer, fall, intersession, or spring terms until the 6 credit limit is reached. Internships for credit earn one credit per term and count towards the 6 credit maximum of independent work per academic year. There is no limit on how many independent work credits you may use toward your total credits required for graduation.
