UMass Boston

Less Than 12 Hour Waiver

Student-athletes who are in their final term of enrollment are not required to enroll full-time IF the courses they are enrolled in will complete their degree program by the end of the term or in the last term before a learning requirement (I.e. student teaching, internship). These graduating student-athletes may apply to be eligible to practice and compete as a part-time student by submitting a “Less Than 12HR Waiver.”   
  
The requirements are:  

  • The Less Than 12 Hour Waiver form must be completed with a student-athlete’s campus academic advisor.  

  • The University Registrar and must confirm that the student-athlete is enrolled in the appropriate number of courses and course titles required to graduate at the end of the term.  

Less Than 12Hr Waivers are due to the Assistant Athletic Director for Student Athlete Academic Success by the Friday of the first week of classes of the student-athlete’s final term of enrollment.
