Students enrolled in Winter Intersession courses are eligible to participate in the Metro Pass program. Two Metro passes will need to be obtained from the Cashier’s Office (285 MSC).

Pre-Registration
Pre-registration for currently enrolled UMSL undergraduate and graduate students begins on November 5, 2012 and is conducted by appointment only during this time period.
- Currently enrolled UMSL students can register for Winter Intersession courses when registering for spring semester courses.
- All UMSL students should check with an academic advisor in their discipline to assure acceptability of credit in their degree program.
- Overload exceptions - Currently enrolled UMSL undergraduate students may register for 17 credit hours per semester: 18 credit hours are considered an overload. If an undergraduate student reaches 18 hours with some of the hours being “winter intersession” courses, the Registrar will manually override the overload message without special approval. Graduate students normally take no more than three credit hours in any four-week period. Graduate students may request exceptions for course loads over 12 hours during the regular semester or three hours during any four-week period.
