20 BECOMING A CWI STUDENT CREDIT ENROLLMENT LIMITS Every student has a unique set of circumstances: academic preparation, skills and abilities, drive and self-motivation, family and work responsibilities, etc. The number of credits a student should enroll in depends on many of these factors as well as on the type and level of difficulty of classes in which he or she intends to enroll. For some students, 15 credits could be considered a full load, while others may be able to successfully complete more credits a semester. Registering for too many credits may result in lower performance.
Students who want to register in more than 20 credits during a fall or spring semester will need the approval of their advisors.
Students who want to register in more than 10 credits in the summer will need the approval of their advisors.
Students receiving financial aid should also keep financial-aid regulations in mind when deciding on the number of credits in which they should enroll.

120 Transportation PROGRAMS OF STUDY Management PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS The Associate of Science in Transportation Management incorporates portions of the Basic Technical Certificate in Professional Truck Driving and the Associate of Arts in Business. This degree prepares students to transfer to a four-year university to study business with a focus on serving in the transportation industry. There is an existing articulation agreement with Boise State University for students graduating in this major.
This degree provides opportunities for students to continue education beyond a certificate in Professional Truck Driving and work towards a Bachelor of Science in Business. The industry has recognized the need and has asked for an advanced education option for its workforce to better prepare them for the changing demands of the shipping and transportation industry.
In addition to new transportation professionals and professional truck drivers, this degree will provide oppor- tunities for current workers to come into the program and upgrade their skills. Incumbent workforce may also train for higher-paying, higher skilled jobs within the transportation industry.
Due to the nature of combining Academic Affair and Career & Technical curriculum, students will be required to double major in both Transportation Management and Professional Truck Driving. Advising with a Professional Truck Driving advisor prior to enrolling in courses is critical to accommodate students’ goals.
