Questions You Might Have
Is it possible to take fewer than 30 credits this year?
If you wish to take a reduced course load, you should meet with an academic advisor before classes start, or during the first week of classes. If you plan to do your degree over 5 years rather than over 4 years, there will be no problem, but you will still need to plan your program carefully. If you plan to do a reduced course load for this one year only, and then take the normal full course load in subsequent years, an advisor can assist you with the best complement of courses for the coming year that will allow you to complete your degree within the four-year period. This will, of course, require your taking spring and/or summer courses over the next three years.
