Hi there, emblem101

First of all, no. There’s no way to increase the limit. Second of all, you need to trust in the system. The reason that there is a limit is so that freshmen, fresh out of high school and thinking that they’re on top of the academic world don’t take on seven classes and then fail them and then drop out. I’m not trying to sound mean or cynical! The limit is there so that you can make an adjusted, sensible transition from high school to college. I’m sorry that you feel like you’ll be bored. Join a club or a study group or something.

Most people come here with lots of AP classes and college classes under their belts, but real college is very different from high school college. You’ll certainly graduate with all the credits you need for your major/minor/whatever, so slow down and take a breath, my friend.
