Course Load

The normal semester load is 15 units. Students with regular admission status who are not on academic probation may take as many as 18 units. Students on academic probation are normally limited to 12 units.

Permission to enroll in excess of 18 units is granted only when unusually high scholarship and urgent need prevail. Counselors can approve a student request to take 19 to 21 units. Students who wish to take 22 or more units may obtain a petition for this purpose in the Counseling Center.

The student who desires to be a candidate for graduation in two years must carry an average of 15 units per semester. The following classifications have been established:

Freshman - fewer than 30 units completed
Sophomore - 30 or more units completed

A maximum total of 11 units may be taken during the entire 10-week summer session, with no more than 4 units in 4-week length courses and no more than 7 units in 6-week length courses.

Students who work are urged to be realistic in balancing the number of academic units undertaken in view of outside hours of work. Normally, each unit undertaken requires two hours of outside study for each hour of class lecture.
