What are the requirements to obtain a course overload?
Students with a cumulative QPA of 3.0 or higher (3.5 for ECE majors) may register for an overload of up to 12 units. Applicable students receive an increase in maximum units about a week after final grades for the semester are calculated. Overloads greater than 12 units or other exceptions must be approved by the College of Engineering Office of Undergraduate Studies. First semester freshmen are not permitted to overload and may enroll in no more than 47 units.
