*Some countries and/or institutions allow a maximum of four courses per semester. While fewer in number than a normal HMC load, these have transferred in as 16 units for the semester.
**At most universities lecture courses must be taken with accompanying laboratories.
***Note that it is possible to take 4 humanities courses and no biology courses while abroad.
