Course Enrollment Restrictions

  1. Freshmen who have fewer than 24 semester hours may not take a course on the 2000-level except when the actual prerequisites for the courses have been fulfilled. Sophomores may take 3000-level courses and juniors may take 4000-level courses when the prerequisites for the courses have been fulfilled.
  2. Students are limited to a maximum of three enrollments in a specific 3000- or 4000-level course (See item #3 under General Degree Requirements for a Baccalaureate Degree).

This rule will not apply to courses that may be repeated for credit when topics vary.
  3. Courses numbered 6000 or higher are normally limited to graduate students. Seniors and postbaccalaureate students may request permission from their department or college to enroll in these classes.
  4. International Students holding F-1 Visas: No more than the equivalent of one on-line/distance education class or 3 credits per session may count towards the "full course of study" requirement.
