Download the list of course restrictions...sorry, these are non-negotiable! If you are not coming to UNH until spring 2009, just sit back & relax. Nothing will happen for you until October. FALL 2008 Exchangers: March 26, 2008 browse the UNH Time & Room Schedule ("T&R"). Click on "course list" on the left, then "undergraduate course list." Then search for classes by department. Also, view and print our Fall 2008 Academic Calendar. Select at least four courses & four alternates, or a maximum of 18 credits. Our classes are usually 4 credits each, so 4 four-credit courses (16 credits) is considered an average load at UNH. Full-time is 12 credits and you must remain registered for 12 or above. Intro level in our four-year school is 400; NSE exchange students can take courses from the 200-700 level. Your flexibility and ability to follow these instructions will greatly help in getting you a good course schedule. It is up to YOU to have these courses approved by your home campus, to ensure that they will transfer back! Check prerequisites and read course descriptions in our catalog: If you have trouble finding anything, zap an email to Paula. Email your selections and alternates to Paula DiNardo, the UNH NSE Coordinator on or BEFORE Friday, April 11, 2008. Here's an example of the info I need, directly cut & paste from T&R: "ANTH 411 01 20113 Global Perspectives: Intro Anth** 4.0 GN5" NOTE: Exchange students are not given priority registration after the dates above; courses for exchange students are severely limited after this date.
