Full time studies is 7.5 credits per period. This means that if a course of 7.5 credits runs over two periods, it is taught at 50% of full time studies. You then need to combine it with another 50% course which runs the same periods. It might also be possible to combine it with a 7.5 course that runs full time over one period (depending on the schedule of both courses).

If a course is 15 credits and runs over two periods, the workload is full time studies. It cannot be combined with any other courses.
