Credits and Hours
For each credit of Psych 499, a student must work 3 hours per week (for 10 weeks) for a total of 30 hours. 2 credits = 6 hours/week = 60 total hours. 3 credits = 9 hours/week = 90 total hours. Grading for Psych 499 is Credit/No Credit only. There are no numerical grades for Psych 499.
There is a limit of 1-3 credits for Psych 499. If a student wants to do more than 3 credits, they will need to register twice for the same quarter using the same Add Code. An individual student can only receive up to 18 credits for Psych 496-499.
Summer Psych 499 credits
Students may want to complete their Psych 499 hours in the summer, but choose not to register for summer. In these situations, a lab may allow students to register for credit they earned during the summer in a future quarter. Please be mindful that 10-18 credits is the same tuition amount. Anything above 18 will include additional tuition rates.
Late Registration for Psych 499 credit
If a student wants to register for your Psych 499 during the second and third week of the quarter, a Psychology Adviser can register the student and the $20 late change fee will be waived.
If a student wants to register for your Psych 499 after the third week of the quarter, they will need to submit a Late Add Petition. After you and your student sign this form, please send your student with the form to the Psychology Advisers for final signatures.
