What is the maximum number of credit hours I can take in a semester?

Here is a list with the different schools at KU and the maximum number of credit hours students can take.  If you need to exceed your school's number for any reason, go to the Registrar's Office in 1502 Iowa Street and pick up an Add/Drop Schedule Change form. You'll need to take the form to the dean of your school for approval, then bring it back to the Registrar.
