Student Load

Due to the nature of technical education, program requirements for A.A.S. degree programs generally exceed a total of 60 credit hours. The additional load is comprised of applied lab time.

A student desiring to take more than 18 credit hours or less than 12 credit hours per semester must meet with his/her advisor for approval. A student desiring to take less than a full class load of 12 credit hours per semester also needs to consult the Office of Financial Aid about financial aid eligibility.
