• Nine (9) hours of academic credit is considered the normal load per semester for CGES graduate students registered in semesters GRFA, GRSP, or GRSU.
• No student may register for more than twelve (12) hours of graduate credit per semester or six (6) hours of graduate credit per term unless that student has a grade point average of 3.20 in the previous semester and obtains written permission from the Provost. Students may not earn more than fifteen (15) hours of graduate credit in a semester or nine (9) hours of graduate credit in a term under any circumstances. However, nationally accredited master's programs may hold a different set of requirements
