Course Credit Limits 
Most courses are 3 to 4 credits (although some may be 1-6 credits). While in exchange status at NMSU, undergraduates must take a minimum of 12 credits and may take a maximum of 18 credits. Graduates must take 9 credits, but students may take up to 11 credits on the exchange benefit (more than 11 credits requires approval for payment from the Assistant Dean for Study Abroad). Full-time enrollment is a condition of the J-1 student visa status of exchange students.
Advisory: Exchange students taking more than the maximum allowed have to pay the difference for additional credit cost. Also, special course fees (such as for Physical Education courses) are borne by the exchange student.
