Full-Time, Half-Time, Part-Time Student Enrollment Status for Loan Deferment, Medical Insurance, etc.
Certification of full, half or less than half-time enrollment status for loan deferment, medical insurance, etc. is based on hours of enrollment in a term (Fall, Spring, Summer). Listed below are the requirements that constitute full-time student status for official enrollment certification purposes by the Office of the Registrar and for financial assistance.
Full time enrollment as defined below, is often required in order for students to be covered for health/medical insurance or to defer repayment of student loans. For example, a dependent student may be covered under their parent's medical insurance plan as long as that student remains enrolled as a full time student. If that student were to drop below full time status, they may not be covered. This should be considered when dropping from full time to half/part time status.
