Credit Load For Financial Aid Eligibility And Loan Deferment

Under certain circumstances, a student may be enrolled in the maximum load for a degree program during the fall or spring semester, but may be taking fewer than twelve (12) credits. When the maximum load falls below twelve (12) credits, a student does not meet the full-time degree status requirement. It is the student’s responsibility to know how many credits are required to maintain eligibility for deferment of previous loans and for each form of financial aid received.
