When you register for classes, your enrollment status will be based on the number of hours for which you enroll. For financial aid purposes, enrollment status is based on the following:
Classification | Semester | Full-time | ¾ time | ½ time |
Undergraduate | Summer Fall Spring | 12 or more hours | 9 to 11 hours | 6 to 8 hours |
Graduate | Fall Spring | 9 or more hours | 7 to 8 hours | 5 to 6 hours |
Graduate | Summer | 6 or more hours | 5 hours | 3 to 4 hours |
Law | Fall Spring | 12 or more hours | 9 to 11 hours | 6 to 8 hours |
Law | Summer | 5 or more hours | 4 hours | 3 hours |
Your enrollment status is not official until after the last day to add for the semester. After the last day to add in a given semester, your enrollment status is set and this status is used in determining award amounts. A recalculation of eligibility based on your enrollment status as of the last day to add may result in repayment of some or all of your financial aid.
