Progress toward Degree

Students accepted to degree programs are expected to work with continuity and to register for courses in those programs until all requirements are completed. Ordinarily, students register each semester for a minimum of three credit hours. Full-time students carry a minimum of nine hours of credit per semester. All courses to be counted toward the degree must be completed within six years. Six credits may be taken in each of the two summer sessions, for a maximum of 12 credits per summer.
