Student Academic Load
Full-time: Students carrying 12 hours or more each semester are considered to be full-time for the University. Participation in intercollegiate athletics, University traveling groups, academic scholarships, student government scholarships and most financial aid programs require this minimum academic load. Students should be aware that completing only 12 hours per semester will not enable them to graduate in eight semesters and that some programs may require more than eight fifteen-hour semesters to complete.
Part-time: Students currently enrolled for fewer than 12 hours of work for college credit are considered to be part-time.
