During the fall and spring semesters, a full-time student is one who is enrolled for at least 12 hours of courses, including both credit and non-credit (i.e., developmental) courses. Full-time status may be required of some students, depending upon financial aid or scholarship status. Some students are also required to be full-time if covered under parental health insurance. A student must be enrolled for four credit hours in a summer term to be considered full-time.
