15.6. Exceeding Credit Limits

Students who enroll in credits beyond the credit limit may be charged at the same graduate assistantship tuition rate, but will be responsible for paying all tuition and fees.

Students who have exceeded the credit limit and still need to finish their disquisition may register in a fee-based 898 Continuing Enrollment course at a rate of $150.00 per credit, if eligible. The 898 Continuing Enrollment credits are not covered by the GA tuition waiver. Students that are not yet graduating and utilize this option will be required to enroll in the graduate assistantship minimum enrollment requirement of 6 credits during fall and spring semesters. Students that are in their final graduating semester may enroll in one (1) continuing enrollment credit as a one-time exception. Students who seek this option as Graduate Assistants are still liable to otherwise follow Graduate Assistantship policies.

Students holding an F-1 or J-1 visa may not be eligible for the 898 credits. Contact your international advisor for full details.
