ACADEMIC REGULATIONS

Senior Students Extra Load

If upon reaching the end of the Spring Semester of the third year, a student still needs at most 3 credit hours in addition to what the paradigm allows to graduate by the set graduation date, the student is allowed an overload of up to three credit hours in the Summer of their third year, or the Fall or Spring of their fourth year provided the following conditions are met:

  1. The student is not on probation at the end of the semester preceding the semester in which an overload is to be taken
    The CGPA at the end of the semester preceding the semester in which an overload is to be taken is 2.5 or above.
  2. If the additional course is a Major course then the Major GPA must be 2.5 or above in the semester preceding the semester in which an overload is to be taken.
  3. If the extra credits are to be taken during the Summer, then it is not allowed that any of the courses be done as independent study.
  4. This is a one off opportunity, which means that the student is allowed to take a maximum total of 3 hour extra load only once.

Students in this category and who fulfil the above conditions must complete a request for an overload that is available on-line under the Registrar’s Office and must secure the approval of their advisors, chairpersons, and Deans before submitting the request to the Academic Office for final approval.
