ACCELERATION

Policies and Procedures Home > Academic Policies >

Acceleration is the opportunity to earn more than the maximum 16 credits in one enrollment term, but not more than 20 credits. This is limited to full-time students who have not interrupted the learning contract in question.

Acceleration may occur in two different ways. First, the learning contract proposal can be drawn up with more than 16 but no more than 20 credits. The center dean must review and approve this accelerated enrollment. Acceleration may be accomplished by amending a full-time enrollment. Again, the center dean must review and approve the amendment for the accelerated enrollment.
