<p>Will Wolverine Access allow me to register for 19 credits without any overrides? I e-mailed my counselor but she hasn't gotten back to me and I need to know asap.</p>
<p>If not, how do I go about getting such an override? Also, any idea on how much more I would have to pay? Thanks</p>
<p>No, you cannot register for 19 without any overrides. Talk to your counselor by setting up an appointment, or just go to open office hours.</p>
<p>I said it last night, and I will say it again: taking this many credits is AWFUL. The work might even be easy, but you just have so many classes to go to, and if you are involved in activities with an active time commitment, you end up with little to no free time and it is just horrible.</p>
<p>I did 18 winter semester freshman year and made it through with a decent GPA, but I was just so miserable and stressed that I made a lot of poor decisions outside of class. Going back down to 16 credits and virtually no activities this semester has been such a relief. I don't have to worry about anything, I'm not getting ****ed at anyone or making anyone else mad, everything is great.</p>
<p>ditto my son, dsmo. He took 18 credits this semester and will NOT do it again.</p>
<p>I third dsmo and SBDad. College is supposed to be a 4-year experience. Pace your self and have a great time. I would never recommend taking more than 17 credit hours. The ideal is to stick to 14-16 credit hours per semester and graduate in exactly 8 terms (4 years). For Freshmen, I never recomment more than 16 credits in a term.</p>
<p>This semester, I have 13 credits of class, 3 UROP...it's the best. Wish I could keep doing it. And if I would have transferred into Engineering earlier, probably could have...instead, I had 59 credits by the end of freshman year, and I'll probably have to keep going at the 16-17 pace to graduate in 4 years.</p>
<p>why would you have to keep going at 16-17 credits to graduate in 4 years if you had 59 credits at the end of freshman year?</p>
<p>I'll still have like 50 credits left for my degree at the end of sophomore year...I'm pretty much at the point where if I stay for four years, I'll probably be able to get my EECS degree and econ minor...if I were to stay for another year, I could probably pick up another engineering or econ degree.</p>
