Hello! ~
\nIs it at all possible to take 2.5 courses in the summer term? Are there exceptions that would allow this? For example if you were looking to graduate after the summer term. Would you need a certain GPA in order to request for this?
\nThank you! Student<\/p>\n

hey there student,<\/p>\n

it is possible. what you’re talking about is a course overload<\/a>, and you can request one through your college registrar’s office<\/a>.<\/p>\n

school is hard as it is, so yeah, usually you need a pretty good track record taking courses (read: a good GPA) to be granted an overload. if you’re planning on graduating soon, that would probably also help your case. gives a sense of URGENCY to the matter.<\/p>\n

xoxo,<\/p>\n
