Credit Limit?

<p>Hey guys, is it true that we are limited to 19.5 credits per quarter?</p>

<p>Source:</p>

<p>"Remember you can enroll in up to 19.5 units during initial enrollment for Fall, Winter and Spring and up to 22 units without college approval when the quarter begins. Summer Sessions 1 and 2 limits are 12 units; the Special Summer Session limit is 15 units."</p>

<p>I do not understand the "22 unit" part?</p>

<p>Thanks for any replies! :)</p>

<p>The 22 Units part means that one classes begin you can sign up for more classes, up to 22 units without needing additional approval. Until classes begin, you can only be signed up for the 19.5, which amounts to just less than 5 classes. They have that limit in place so people don't inflate waitlists and enrollment by signing up for a bunch of classes.</p>

<p>With that said, I don't know why you'd want to take that many units in your first quarter.</p>

<p>He wants to prove to his suitemates that he is THE man.</p>

<p>Thanks for the clarification. I just wanted to add chem in my winter quarter, but i was afraid that i couldnt. But adding a class when instruction begins, would that put people adding classes at an disadvantage? </p>

<p>LOL on post here and the other forum.</p>

<p>the only disadvantages i can think of are if your class is full (bad news bears) or your professor uses a class-wide mailing list and you're not on it (easily remedied)</p>
