<p>I looked at some student reviews and found out UC Berkeley and Rice offer free unlimited credits every semester, so you can take as many courses as u like.</p>

<p>Do any other colleges ranking top 30 offer such a thing?</p>

<p>thx for any replies!</p>

<p>I’ve heard only of colleges that charge a discount tuition for credits over 16. Perhaps some do offer extra credits for free. </p>

<p>None as far as I know. There are some schools though that will waive overage charges for certain classes, such as at U of R (where I go), music ensembles and private lessons don’t count for that. However, if you go above 6 units and don’t have those classes, you will be charged extra. In addition, you need a dean override to sign up for more than 5.5.</p>

<p>UC Berkley does not have unlimited credit caps, you need a dean or department override to sign up for more.

rice also needs a special approval to sign up for more classes.</p>

<p>These overrides are not that easy to get for good reason. Taking too many classes can cause you to get failing grades.</p>

<p>I thought most LACs were generally a single price for as many credits as you can take.</p>

<p>^except for if you go above the maximum credit limit, your tuition doesn’t cover that and you’ll be charged extra.</p>
