  • A full-time student should register for no less than 12 credits and no more than 16 (18 for engineering students) credits in any regular (fall and spring) semester. 

  • A student may register for up to 18 (19 for engineering students) credits after securing the approval of the Administrative Committee in the College, or if it is required by a Department in specific terms.  Approval is normally granted by the Administrative Committee if the student has a cumulative average of at least 80. 

  • A student may register in a summer term for a maximum of 9 credit hours. All exceptional cases require the approval of the respective Administrative Committee.

  • Courses/credits taken during a summer semester are counted towards the semester average of the next semester. If the number of credits taken in any one semester is less than 12 (for approved reasons), courses/credits taken during that semester are counted towards the semester average of the next semester. 

  • Credit for incomplete courses will be included in the semester in which the incomplete courses were taken. The evaluation for that semester will be carried out as soon as the grades for the incomplete courses have been finalized.
