Class Size

Minimum Class Size Limits: The minimum class size limit is twenty (20) students. The District may cancel a section with an enrollment below this limit.

Maximum Class Size Limit: Each course will have a maximum class size limit. This limit will apply to all sections of this course at all locations (except as allowed in 32.04). Such limits for all courses will be specified in a record available to faculty. The instructor of record for the section may allow additional students to add the section beyond its maximum class size.

New provisions for Extended Lecture (EL) maximum class size, load, and additional teaching assistant support will be in effect as a pilot project beginning with the development of the spring 2015 schedule and ending with the development of the spring 2018 schedule. In Fall 2014, only those classes scheduled with a class maximum of 70 or more are eligible for extended lecture.
