Course Load

Constantin College of Liberal Arts

To be full time, an undergraduate student must be enrolled for a minimum of 12 semester hours; full-time for graduate students is 9 semester hours. Most undergraduates pursue approximately 15-16 credits per semester, i.e., five regular courses. Because of the demanding academic load, undergraduate students may not take 18 or more credits in the fall or spring semesters unless they have a cumulative grade point average of 3.0, and undergraduate students studying on the Rome campus may not take additional online courses.

Students who wish to register for more than 14 hours, must gain approval from the program director and academic Dean.
