Is there a recommended course load per semester?
A normal course load is six hours per semester. This allows for adequate time and attention in preparation for class activities and assignments. In addition to academic success, an important part of the program is student demonstration of self-discipline in maintaining a healthy life balance. Experience shows that taking a normal course load (3 or 6 hours in one semester) increases the likelihood of this demonstration. Any deviation from the recommended course load must be approved in advance by the Educational Leadership program faculty.
