What is the maximum number of credits I may take per semester?
Freshmen may take a maximum of 17 credits per semester. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors may take a maximum of 18 credits per semester. Summer term maximum credits are: Summer Session I allows a maximum of 3 credits, Summer Session II allows 6 credits, and Summer Session III also allows 6 credits. If you wish to enroll in a four-credit course, and a three-credit course in sessions II or III, an overload petition is not necessary. Students who wish to exceed the maximum number of credits during any given semester must petition for a credit overload. Petitions may be picked up in the COE Undergraduate Advising Center (CEB 226).
