you have 8 semesters at carolina. the purpose of this is to keep students moving through and creating more room for incoming students. You need dean’s permission to enter a 9th semester. I’m pretty sure that this is just for full time, so if you’re coming down to graduation time and find yourself needing just one or two more classes to graduate that is not going to be a problem because you can be a part time student to finish up those classes. Also these 8 semesters do not include summer school or semesters spent abroad. Because most of us come in as freshmen with credit it shouldn’t really be a challenge to finish up your degree unless you have a late major change. This is where the dean’s permission comes into play and i think that they would be willing to work with you on it.
