Overview:
Students are prevented from enrolling in classes that will take their total
attempted hours over their max total units allowed This number is based
on the student’s program and is set when the student is activated for the
term. All students in the same program will have the same Max Totals.
You may also want to decrease a student’s Max Total Units to prevent
them from enrolling in too many hours than is appropriate for the
individual student.
If it is appropriate for the student’s Session Max Total Units to be updated
please see the Job Aid - Changing Maximum Session Enrollment Units.
You should only change this value for your students. You should never
change this value for students in other programs.

5. Once the student’s information displays, update the ‘Max Total Units’
to the desired number and click on ‘Save’.
The student may now register for the Max Total Units based on the new
entry.
You will notice that the Min Total Units will always be set to 0.01. This value
prevents a student from dropping their last class and should never be
changed. If you notice this value set to zero you should contact the
Office of the University Registrar.
Do not change any of the other values on this page.
