  Course LoadFor most Schools and Colleges, a normal course load is four courses at four credit hours each, or sixteen credit hours. In general, students enrolled for three 4-credit courses, or twelve credit hours, are assessed full- time tuition and fees (Metropolitan College under- graduate students are the exception). Students permitted, by their School or College of registration, to register for more than eighteen credit hours will be assessed additional tuition at the per credit rate of their School or College. Most undergraduate students need permission from their School or College to reduce their course load from full time to part time. Part-time students are assessed at the rate of the School or College offering the course, or at the special-fee rate if the course is designated as a special-fee course.According to U.S. immigration law, international students on F-1 and J-1 visas are required to be enrolled for a minimum of twelve credits per semester, with the exception of summer sessions, when attendance is not mandatory. |
