  • Summer Term: A minimum of 9 hours for undergraduates and 6 hours for graduate students.
  • Students registered for a Cooperative Education course (generally course numbers 367, 667, or 867), an internship (generally course numbers 368, 668, or 868), or a Practicum (generally course numbers 369, 669, or 869) will be reported as full-time status for the semester.
  • Doctoral students will be reported full time provided that they have advanced to candidacy and are registered for the 898/899 continuous enrollment course. The "Advancement to Candidacy (D9)" form is availableÌý.

Half-time

  • Fall and Spring Terms: A minimum of 6 semester hours for undergraduates, and 4 semesters hours for graduate students.

Audit grades do not count toward full-time enrollment and could take you below the minimum hours required to maintain full-time or part-time status. Eligibility for financial aid, loans, insurance, and veterans benefits may be affected for those who fall below the minimum. Students should consult their financial aid counselor or lender for enrollment requirements.
