<p>I know there was some talk on the forum about scholarships now covering up to 20 credits, instead of 16.</p>

<p>Has that definitely been passed, and is it for all full tuition scholarships, Presidential, NMF, and Crimson?</p>

<p>Want to be sure of this since the spring schedule is available for view and some kids are starting to plan schedules.</p>

<p>If you are a NM, Presidential or Crimson scholars, the new 20-credit plan is in effect.</p>

<p>Now, if you want to take 20 credits, you do need an override.</p>

<p>Already several students are taking advantage of this new plan, so no one needs to wait until the spring to add an additional class.</p>

<p>The scholarships you mentioned now cover up to 20 credits a semester due to a policy change made over the summer. There seems to be some confusion on if those who have College of Engineering scholarships that cover a portion of tuition may also take 17-20 credits without an additional charge. I’ll leave that question for another person to answer.</p>
