I was looking at Hamilton, and realized they had an 'over-election' fee.

Hamilton College - College Catalogue - Tuition and Fees

Does anyone know if that's 37 courses for all four years? Or am I reading that wrong? And does this make it harder to double major at Hamilton? (If Double majoring is at all possible to begin with.)

Thanks.

I'm double majoring and it is now problem. People normally take 4 courses a semester, which means 32 to graduate. You are allowed to take an additional 5 classes, or 5 courses during 5 semesters, and 3 during your other 3. I've never heard about someone having a problem with it.

Yeah, this isn't a Hamilton thing, it's a basic economic principle. You pay for the courses you take. It's the same story at any college. Hamilton is actually more lenient in that you can take 5 classes some semesters and it won't be a problem.
