Enrollment Level
Financial aid awards are initially based on full-time enrollment and are adjusted based on your actual enrollment on census day for the main part of term of each semester. Courses that are not part of your degree plan/program of study (POS) are not included; a third attempt on a previously passed course is also not counted for financial aid.
Fall, Spring & Summer Enrollment Levels
| Academic Level | Full-Time | Three Quarter Time | Half-Time | Less Than Half Time |

| Undergraduate | 12+ hrs | 9 - 11 hrs | 6 - 8 hrs | 1 - 5 hrs |

Alternate Parts of Term
麻豆分行 offers shorter courses during these semesters in what are called parts of term or modules. In general, enrollment for the wintermester is included in the spring semester enrollment and maymester courses is included in the summer semester enrollment.
However, if a student is enrolled for the fall or spring semester and decides to enroll for the winter or maymester, financial aid will not pay for the winter/maymester if the fall/spring semester grades are not posted.
It is the student’s responsibility to determine payment deadlines and if financial aid will be available for payment by this deadline. This is true for all parts of term that begin before fall/spring/summer first day of class.
