<p>Does anyone have any experience with petitioning to go over 22 points? I’m looking at the form and it asks “explain why you must take each of these courses this term.” I assume they’re looking for something other than “I just really want to and I don’t know if/when they will be offered again.” What kind of circumstances qualify?</p>
<p>I know a few athletes who are worried about not being able to graduate on time. During season, they are only allowed to take maximum 14 credits a semester. At least, the athletes I’ve talked to. Quite a few of them won’t be able to graduate on time if that’s true. A circumstance like that might qualify. They’ll grant it to you if you need it to graduate on time or you need a class for your major and in order to stay on track you <em>need</em> to take a class this semester. But if you just want to over extend yourself I doubt that would count.</p>
