Guidelines
A separate petition must be filed for each course, including labs (i.e., PHYS-7A-01 and PHYS-7L-01
require separate petitions).
Individual study courses must have a copy of the approved Petition for Individual Studies course
attached. Graduate students adding an Independent Study course must obtain approval of the
instructor and course-sponsoring agency.
Undergraduates that have a 3.0 cumulative Grade Point Average or above: if filing this petition will
cause you to be enrolled in more than 22 credits, your college must indicate on this petition that you
are approved for additional credits.
Undergraduates that have less than a 3.0 cumulative Grade Point Average: if filing this petition will
cause you to be enrolled in more than 19 credits, your college must indicate on this petition that you
are approved for additional credits.
If you are a part-time student (10 or fewer credits for undergraduates and 5 or fewer for graduate
students) and your petition will bring you to full-time status, you will be billed for the balance of full-
time fees.
The instructor, the department office, or the college office may deny the petition. The Registrar’s
Office may deny the petition if the request is inconsistent with regulations.
