Reduced Courseload Policy

This policy applies to undergraduate students who wish to take a reduced course load to accommodate a disability. Students with disabilities that significantly limit their ability to manage a full-time course load (12 or more credits) may be accommodated by receiving approval to take a reduced course load. It may be necessary for a student to request a reduced course load because of a more severe academic impact of a significant disability.
