The maximum number of courses for a semester
is based on the course requirements for each program as shown in the College
Catalog. The normal load for a Liberal Arts student is five courses and
a physical education or health education course. For an extension of the
normal course load, a Liberal Arts student must receive a signed approval
form (prior to registration) from their advisor or a counselor in the
Counseling and Advising Center or in Student Services at the Damon City
Campus. Students in programs other than Liberal Arts must receive a signed
approval form (prior to registration) from their department chairperson.
Permission to carry a course overload is usually not granted unless a
student has a cumulative average of at least 3.0 and/or can demonstrate
a special need.
