Maximum Unit Load

Students are restricted to a maximum load of 18 units during the regular registration period for fall and spring semesters. The maximum number of units a student can carry during the summer session is 7 units. The limit is applied to provide all students an opportunity to register for a full program and be successful as students. When space remains in classes during the drop and add periods, the counseling department may approve additional units. Students, particularly first-time college students, should avoid taking more than 18 units in one semester or 7 units during the summer.
