Can you take a full course load after being granted reinstatement (i.e. 5 courses) ?

-I am getting confused with the rules of academic probation because if your on academic probation you can only take i believe 3 courses in one term to which your minimum gpa you have to pass is boosted from 3.0 to 3.5.

Not sure though ...

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Yes you can take 5 courses. you are just not allowed to take more than 30 units ( so 6 courses in one semster and 5 in the other) hope this helps

30 units is typically 5 courses per term...not 6+5, unless the number of units per course is different from normal.

I'm pretty sure you can only take 24 units - 4 each semester. They want to ease you back in. This is how I remember it being for a friend of mine.
