Registration and Records
Glen Oaks operates on a semester basis, with two 15-week semesters (fall and winter) and a summer session in which courses start and finish at various times.
Course Load
A student who carries 12 or more credits is classified as a full-time student. However, to complete an associate degree in two years, a student must carry what is known as a “full load.” A “full load” is usually 15-16 credit hours/semester.
Student Classification
Full-Time Student | A student who registers for 12 semester hours of credit or more in a given semester. |
---|---|
Part-Time Student | A student who registers for less than 12 semester hours of credit in a given semester. Note: This may vary for veterans. |
Freshman | Any student who has completed less than 28 semester hours of credit. |
Sophomore | Any student who has completed 28 or more semester hours of credit. |
Schedule Change
No courses can be added by a student after 10% of the academic period has elapsed, unless there are documented extenuating circumstances and approval by the Vice President of Academics. Students are not permitted to add a course if they have missed the equivalent of one week of instruction.
