Advising Forms

Permit Requests

Business majors must request permits for Upper Division business courses (3000-4000 level) if they have not completed the Lower Business core; have less than 45 college-level hours, and/or have not completed specific course prerequisites with the appropriate grades
Non-business majors must request permits for all Upper Division business courses. 45 college-level hours and specific course prerequisites must be completed to be eligible to take Upper Division business courses.

Undergraduate students may enroll in a maximum of 20.5 hours for Fall or Spring, and 23 hours for Summer, as long as the maximum hours for any of the term’s “parts of term” are not exceeded. To exceed these loads, a student must receive overload approval.
In order for a student to be reviewed for a course overload the student must have a 3.0 cumulative grade point average.
Please note: the submission of an application is not an automatic guarantee that an overload will be granted.
