Eligible to Continue with Overload Privilege (EC)
Eligible to Continue with Overload Privilege (EC) signifies that you have met the academic standards required for your degree program and that you are eligible to continue your studies. Please note that some degree programs have additional requirements to be Eligible to Continue (EC); these are listed in Section 3.2.7 of the Undergraduate Calendar. For more information about CGPA requirements for Eligible to Continue (EC) status for degree students, please see the links below to the Undergraduate Calendar.
In addition to the decision of Eligible to Continue (EC), you have been granted an overload privilege due to your successful completion of 4.0 credits or more and your Overall CGPA of 7.00 or higher. An overload allows you to register in a maximum of 3.0 credits in each of the Fall and/or Winter sessions. In order to give all students fair access to available courses during the registration period, you will only be able to access your overload privilege on August 1, following the time-ticket period for returning degree students.
Please keep in mind that an overload can be a challenging workload. You are strongly encouraged to review your progress regularly, meet with an advisor, if necessary, and be aware of withdrawal deadlines if you choose to exercise your overload privilege.
Below you will find some important resources and information to help you with your continued academic success.
