The financial aid award is prepared based on an anticipated full-time enrollment (Fall and Winter initially with Spring/Summer added later in the year, if applicable). If actual attendance is less than that (e.g., half-time), financial aid awards will be adjusted accordingly.

Each financial aid program fund may have different credit hour requirements, as well as funding limits. Make sure you are enrolled for the appropriate number of credit hours required by the financial aid program(s) from which you are receiving funding (see below). In addition to the chart below, please refer to the Pell Grant section to determine how Pell Grant is adjusted based on actual enrollment.

Students may not receive financial aid to audit classes or for courses that have been passed and then subsequently repeated.

[a] – annual award limits apply – funding may not be available for Spring/Summer;
[b] – funding is limited; and
[c] – award/disbursement amounts are pro-rated for enrollment in fewer than 12 credit hours per semester.
