What enrollment level means
Schools define full-time, three-quarter-time, half-time and less-than-half-time in credits. Ask your school for its definitions.
How grants respond
The Federal Pell Grant, for example, is generally adjusted for enrollment level. Some state and campus grants require a minimum level.
Before changing your course load
- Ask how a change would affect your grant.
- Ask about deadlines for adding or dropping classes.
- Ask whether summer terms count.
Where to ask
The financial aid office at your school can explain how its rules apply to you.
