Course Numbering System
|
|
The number assigned to a course gives an indication of the level of difficulty and indicates for whom the course is intended. Courses numbered 100-299 are undergraduate-level courses. Courses numbered 300-699 are open to either undergraduate or graduate students. Courses numbered 700-999 are graduate-level and professional courses including research/thesis and seminars. Only graded courses 300 or above (not including audits or pass/fail) count for the Graduate School GPA, continuous registration, and minimum registration. See Continuous Registration, Credit Load, Minimum Credit Requirement. |

Credit Load
|
| Dissertators are required to register for three graduate-level credits (generally research and thesis or required seminars) directly related to their dissertation. The minimum non-dissertator credit load for fall or spring semester is two graduate-level credits (300-level or above). The maximum non-dissertator credit load during the fall or spring semester is 12 graduate credits (master's programs in social work allow up to 15 graduate credits; master's programs in business allow up to 18). The maximum non-dissertator credit load during the summer is eight graduate credits (master's programs in business or social work allow up to nine graduate credits). Courses taken pass/fail, or audit, or below the 300 level do not count toward these minimums or maximums. Such courses may, however, fulfill internal department course requirements or prerequisites. For exceptions to the full-time credit requirement, see Appendix 7. See Dissertator (FAQs), Full-Time Status, Overloads, Summer Registration, Underloads. |
