Underload/Overload
Requests to enroll in fewer or more than the required number of credit hours must be based on academic program needs and not on assistantship appointment requirements. Requests must be submitted before the second week of the academic term.
Graduate Assistants who want to carry an overload (more than 12 hours in the fall spring/more than 9 hours in the summer) or an underload (less than 6 hours in the fall/spring, less than 3 in the summer) during any semester must complete the Underload/Overload Approval Form. After the Faculty Advisor approves the form, it is submitted to the Graduate School for consideration.
