Credit load will be increased after completion of the first year of studies. Student can have up to 33 credits (3 additional credits) each semester.


Every student should check a prerequisite for each class.
Prerequisites are classes you need to take before you can move on to another class. Often it is a move to more advanced class. For example, you cannot take FYS 216, if you have not taken FYS 100.
The other example: psychology 101 needs to be taken before psychology 250.


Please remember, if you took psychology 101 and failed it, it means you did not pass the prerequisite requirement and you cannot take more advanced course like psychology
250.
