2011-2012 Undergraduate Catalog

Overloads

More than 18 credit hours per semester for undergraduate students is considered an overload. Students requesting overload credits must have a 3.00 or higher cumulative grade point average.

  • In addition, specific colleges, schools and programs may have additional conditions regarding overloads. It is the student’s responsibility to meet these conditions.
  • Undergraduate students who have lower than a 3.00 GPA but have extenuating circumstances may petition for an overload from the program advisor and school director. See additional overload information.

Overloads of more than 21 hours require approval by the student’s major advisor and school director. All approvals must be forwarded to the Registrar. The Registrar will assure that these procedures have been followed.
