Credit Overload Request FormBusiness students may take up to 19 credits in fall/spring and 8 per summer session/16 total.

Accelerated Degree Programs let Marquette undergraduates take graduate courses during junior or senior year that may count toward both degrees. With planning, students may apply up to 9 graduate credits to a business ADP, finish a master’s in one additional year, and save over $11,500.
Business ADPs include the MBA, MS in Accounting, MS in Accounting Analytics, MS in Applied Economics, Master in Management, and MS in Finance. See all university ADPs here.
Students admitted to an ADP receive priority registration for undergraduate seats in graduate-level courses. Students not admitted to ADP may be considered after registration closes, with permission numbers sent the following week. Course requests are due by the Thursday before the add/drop deadline each session. Students may take up to 6 graduate credits per term.
Next steps: Discuss ADP planning with your undergraduate advisor. Juniors should submit an ADP application. To request graduate course enrollment, use the Permission for an Undergraduate Student to Enroll in a Graduate Course form. For GSM questions or ADP application support, visit OB415 or email gsm@marquette.edu. GMAT/GRE waivers are available.
Add/Drop Deadline: Students can add and drop courses until a set date on the university’s Academic Calendar each semester. Classes are added or removed from the academic record when students add or drop those classes before the deadline to Add/Drop.
Under 12 credits: Enrollment in a minimum of 12 credits = full-time enrollment status. Enrollment in 9-11 credits = three-quarter time enrollment status. Enrollment in 6-8 credits = half-time enrollment status. Enrollment in fewer than 6 credits = less than half-time status. If planning to enroll in less than 12 credits review Bursar information and any Financial Aid implications.
Course withdrawal: After the add/drop course deadline, classes remain permanently on students' records and may not be removed. The period for withdrawing from classes (W grade), or the term, is the day after the last day to add/drop for a session, until the withdrawal deadline, as specified in the Academic Calendar. After the withdrawal deadline, students who wish to withdraw, are assigned the appropriate grade. Steps on how to withdraw through CheckMarq. Single Course Withdrawal Form if your drop causes you to be under 12 credits, and Implications on Financial Aid.
Credit load (maximum): Students in the college of business can take a maximum of 19 credits in a fall or spring term, and 8/16 in the summer (per session total/total per summer term). Juniors and seniors may be allowed to carry more than the maximum college established credit load, with the consent of Assistant Dean Krey. Students should submit a course overload request form in advance of a semester's add/drop deadline.
Dual Enrollment: Can a student take courses at two institutions at once, including or not including Marquette University coursework? Yes, during summer and J-Session if not overlapping with Marquette University's schedule. Marquette students who wish to take classes at another institution must have the courses approved by their home college office prior to attending that institution. See the summer coursework information above within Registration Information.
Holds:Student holds and how to remove? Students are responsible for taking the steps necessary to ensure that all holds on registration have been cleared before attempting to enroll in classes. CheckMarq will prevent students from registering if a student has an active hold on their record. The hold description in a student’s CheckMarq account will share information on how to resolve it.
Thinking of transferring to another college at Marquette? Colleges at Marquette University, including business accept internal student transfers each semester. Each college may have their own requirements for entry, but all students interested in transferring must complete the Internal Transfer form to be considered for review. It is recommended that students meet with the desired college to understand any transfer requirements.
Wait lists: How do they work, do I use the swap function, is it a guarantee, can a student join multiple wait lists? See information above on University Wait Lists within the Registration Information section or visit the University Wait List webpage.
