3.2.3 Course Load

While five three-unit courses taken concurrently represent a normal full load, some programs prescribe additional courses. Students may elect to take up to six three-unit courses in a term, but an extra course represents a substantial burden and may adversely affect overall performance.

In many programs, opportunities for accelerated progress also exist through credit courses in the Spring and Summer Intersession as well as credits obtained by Special Assessment.
