Students may petition to elect a course for either more or fewer credits than the number printed in the Undergraduate Course Catalog and LSA Course Guide. Requests for additional credits must include a rationale and information on additional coursework the student will complete. Requests for fewer credits must include a rationale and information on what changes will be made to the course to justify a reduction in credits. In both cases, the request must be approved by the instructor and submitted prior to the drop/add deadline for the term. Final approval of petitions to adjust the credit hour for a course is made by the LSA Office of Student Academic Affairs.  


Students may find the “Request for LSA Modification of Credit Hours” petition in MyAdvising.
